Parameters
Comments
•
Select 488E-6 (or MAX) for measuring resistances of less than 8000
Ω. Select
30E-6 (or MIN) for resistances of 8000
Ω and above. <amplitude> may be
specified in µA (ua).
•
For resistance temperature measurements ([SENSe:]FUNCtion:TEMPerature)
the Current Source SCP must be set as follows:
•
When *CAL? is executed, the current sources are calibrated on the range
selected at that time.
