This document is a supplement to the 8050A and includes errata and additional information.
This is a technical supplement for the Fluke 8050A multimeter. It contains specific instructions to correct errors found in the original user or service manuals, ensuring that technicians can maintain the instrument's accuracy.
The document details numerous changes across various sections of the primary manual, including corrections to conductance measurement descriptions, wiring diagrams, software error notes regarding the analog-to-digital converter, and component specifications for resistors and integrated circuits.
A software error exists in the analog to digital converter display sequence of integrated circuit U17, causing specific counts to occasionally display incorrect digits.
Connect an AC Calibrator (John Fluke Model 5200A) to the V/K/S and COMMON inputs, select switch positions from Table 4-4a, adjust the calibrator, and verify the display is within limits.
