Software  
Complete the following steps to install Calibration Executive:  
1. Make sure that your computer and monitor are powered on and  
that you have installed Windows 2000/NT/Me/9x.  
2. Close all open applications.  
3. Insert the installation CD into the CD-ROM drive.  
4. Choose the Run option from the Start menu on the desktop task bar.  
5. In the command line box, type x:\setup.exe(where x is the letter  
of the CD-ROM drive you are using), and click OK.  
6. Follow the instructions that appear in the dialog boxes.  
The setup program installs Calibration Executive as well as  
the associated files listed in Table 3.

Follow these guidelines to optimize the connections and the environment  
during calibration:  
Keep connections to the NI 5102 short. Long cables and wires act as  
antennae, picking up extra noise that can affect measurements.  
Use a 50 BNC coaxial cable for all connections to the device.  
Keep relative humidity between 10 and 90%, noncondensing,  
or consult your device hardware manual for the optimum relative  
humidity.  
Maintain the temperature at 25 °C.  
Allow a warm-up time of at least 15 minutes to ensure that the  
measurement circuitry of the 5102 is at a stable operating temperature.

Calibration Procedures  
This section explains how to set up and run the Calibration Executive  
procedure.  
Using the Wavetek 9500 in automated mode, the calibration procedure  
takes approximately ten minutes. In manual mode, the procedure takes  
approximately 30 minutes.  
Using the alternative instruments in automated mode, the calibration  
procedure takes approximately 20 minutes. In manual mode, the procedure  
takes approximately 40 minutes.  
Connecting Your Calibrator, DMM, and NI 5102  
The calibration procedure steps you through the connections between the  
calibrator, function generator, DMM, and NI 5102.  
Note You do not need a function generator or a DMM if you are using the Wavetek 9500.  
Running the Calibration Executive Procedure  
To run the Calibration Executive calibration procedure, complete the  
following steps:  
1. Launch Calibration Executive and follow the instructions in the in the  
Calibration Configuration Wizard to load the NI 5102 calibration  
procedure. Refer to Chapter 1, Introduction to Calibration Executive,  
in the Calibration Executive Software User Manual if you need more  
information on configuring and loading a calibration procedure.  
2. When prompted by Calibration Executive, enter information about the  
installed hardware, such as the calibrator, function generator, and  
DMM.  
Note If you are using the Wavetek 9500, you will not need a function generator or a  
DMM, so you can leave noneselected in the list boxes for Selected Generator  
Information, Selected DMM Information, and Available Addresses. You must also  
enter N/A in the appropriate fields for the tracking numbers and calibration due dates  
before you can proceed. The calibration report does not include any of this extra  
information if you are using the Wavetek 9500.  
3. When the procedure is loaded, click Run Procedure to begin. The  
procedure prompts you to enter the device number, which is the  
number assigned by Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).  
4. Follow any instructions you receive from Calibration Executive.

Viewing the Calibration Report  
When the procedure is finished, complete the following steps to view the  
calibration report:  
1. Click View»Reports.  
2. Select View to launch your browser and view your report. The  
calibration report appears as an printable HTML file.  
You have completed calibrating your NI 5102 with Calibration Executive.  
Note If your NI 5102 device fails after calibration, return the device to National  
Instruments for repair or replacement.
