Step 4.  Press the [MEAS OPEN] or [DCR OPEN] 
soft-key. A dialog message, “Open-circuit the 
test terminals” will appear. 
Step 5.  Connect the test fixture to the BNC terminals. 
Do not connect the DUT to the fixture. 
Step 6.  Press the [OK] soft-key. The LCR-6000 will 
then measured the open admittances 
(capacitance and conductance) at the all test 
frequency points. 
     
    During the measurement, an “LCR OPEN 
measurement in progress” dialog message is 
shown on the display. 
    When the measurement has finished, 
“Correction finished” is displayed. During the 
measurement, you can press the [ABORT] 
soft-key to abort the OPEN correction. 
Step 7.  After the OPEN measurement has finished, 
the meter will enable OPEN correction 
automatically. You can, however, still choose 
to manually choose to enable or disable OPEN 
correction by depressing the ON or OFF soft-
keys. 
The short correction feature of the LCR-6000 Series 
compensates for any residual impedances (R,X) that may 
exist outside of calibration, such as the impedance of the 
cables and the DUT connection points. 
See Figure 4-4  Residual Impedances.
