Volt/mA Calibrator
Instruction Sheet
Introduction
The Fluke 715 Volt/mA Calibrator is a source and measurement tool for 0 to 24 mA current loop testing and dc voltage from 0 to 20/25 V. The calibrator does not source and measure simultaneously. Your calibrator is supplied with a holster, a set of test leads, an installed 9 V alkaline battery, and this instruction sheet.

Safety Information
Use the calibrator only as specified in this sheet, otherwise the protection provided by the calibrator may be impaired. A Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazard(s) to the user; a Caution identifies conditions and actions that may damage the calibrator or the equipment under test.
W Warning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury: Never apply more than 30 V between any two jacks (terminals), or between any jack and earth ground. Make sure the battery door is closed and latched before you operate the calibrator. Remove test leads from the calibrator before you open the battery door. Do not operate calibrator if it is damaged. Do not operate the calibrator around explosive gas, vapor, or dust. When servicing the calibrator, use only specified replacement parts.
Caution
Use the proper jacks, function, and range for your measurement or output application.
1.
With the Calibrator OFF, press the O key. P.S.xx is displayed, where xx is the turn-off time in minutes. OFF means the power saver is disabled. Press ] and/or } to increase or decrease the turnoff time in minutes. To disable, press } until the display shows OFF.
2. 3.
Now using the ] } controls set the output to the desired output value for 100% Again, press the ] } scroll keys simultaneously to store the 100% value.

Sourcing mA
Use source mode whenever you need to supply current into a passive circuit such as a current loop with no loop supply. Insert the test leads into the OUTPUT + and mA jacks as shown below. Note A path must exist for current to flow between the OUTPUT + and mA jacks, otherwise the display will indicate an overload (OL) when you set an output value.

Maintenance
For maintenance procedures not described in this sheet, contact a Fluke Service Center.
In Case of Difficulty
Check the battery and test leads. Replace as necessary. Review this sheet to make sure you are using the correct jacks and pushbuttons.
If the calibrator needs repair, contact a Fluke Service Center. If the calibrator is under warranty, see the warranty statement below for terms. If the warranty has lapsed, the calibrator will be repaired and returned for a fixed fee. Contact a Fluke Service Center for information and price.
Cleaning
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and detergent; do not use abrasives or solvents.
Calibration
Calibrate your calibrator once a year to ensure that it performs according to its specifications. A calibration manual is available (PN 686540). Call 1-800-526-4731 from the USA and Canada. In other countries, contact a Fluke Service Center.
W Warning
To avoid false readings, which could lead to possible electric shock or personal injury, replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator (B) appears.
