Marshall,

There is no adjustment - The voltage measuring circuits are usually quite accurate (fixed with 1% resistors).

1 volt is a lot of difference. Normally there will be a 0.3 volt difference between the actual power supply voltage and the voltage internal to the K2 because of the voltage drop across the reverse polarity protection diode D10 and there may be a bit of voltage drop across F1 (the resettable fuse). If you really have a 1 volt drop, you should look for a bad solder connection in the DC supply line.

Also, where are you measuring the voltage? If you are measuring it directly at the power supply, examine the connecting cable carefully and be certain its connection to the power supply is tight - loose connections will cause a significant voltage drop which varies with the current drawn.

Hello to all,
A annoyance with my k2 is that the voltage reading when I tap the display button reads 1 full volt low comparied to both of my multimeters.
Is there a way to adjust for this error?
