Roy,
The tool needed to adjust the 7

and stable rather than trying to 'adjust' them each time they might go in
for 'cal'.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.

Roy,
The 732A uses the 3059Y-1-101 type cermet pot for the 10V adjustment. You
can use a simple plastic tweaking tool for adjustment. I believ
t sometimes it is better just to leave
things alone and just use the known offset from 10 volts when checking or
doing cals.

Michael,
Do you know when the 3457A battery was last replaced?
Hopefully it was annotated somewhere, but with all the talk about batteries,
the one inside the 3457A should probably be checked too.

That's not what the regs said last time I looked. You can carry
a few in your carry-on, inside, or outside of your laptop. There
are limits related to watt-hour capacity, though I don't remember
what they are.

Charles,
Thanks for the info on batteries. I agree, some are definitely better than
others. However, I'm no 'connoisseur' of batteries yet. The 732A I got was
'unknown working condition' and I wanted the cheapest batteries I could find
to test the unit and see if I could get it up and running.

As others have said, you have no way to tell with what you have. I

Michael,
I would start with what is the easiest to test. If you look inside the "Reset"
hole and do not see a bare metal contact behind the hole, there is missing
hardware. I can look inside one of mine and I can see it with no problem.
You only need a short piece of stripped wire to touch between

ga. copper wire with one end flattened to make a screwdriver.
Good luck.

Hi Michael,
I agree with Orin, you do not have the ability, on hand, to verify the
732A. If you have the manual, try seeing if the Acceptance procedure
(page 4-8) gives reasonable results.
Are there any stickers that indicate what the thermister value should be
? Keep in mind that it is a
Best I can tell, the 3457A 1 year spec is 0.0040% of reading + 19 counts
for 6.5 digits on the 30V scale, 100PLC, cal temp +/- 5 deg C.
Your 10.00036 V reading is therefore +/- 0.00059 V. I'd say you can't
really tell with the 3457A whether the 732A is close or not.
