Diode
This section describes how to configure diode tests from the front panel. The range and resolution are fixed; the range
is 10 VDC (with a 1 mA current source output).
Step 1: Configure the test leads as shown.
Step 2: Press on the front panel to open a menu that specifies whether the DMMwill beep to indicate a
successful diode test.
Diode measurements behave as follows:
0to5V voltage displayed on the front panel, and instrument beeps when signal transitions into the 0.3 to 0.8 V
threshold (if beeping is enabled)
>5V the front panel displays OPEN, and SCPI returns 9.9E37
