5.2 Setting Basic Settings of Measurement

• The DC bias function is specifically for capacitor measurement. If it is used for resistor,
inductor, and other elements with low DC resistance, the following are likely.
• Normal measurement is not possible
• AUTO ranging is unable to determine a range.
• The DC bias function cannot be set during DC resistance measurement.
• The DC bias function cannot be set when Rdc measurement has been selected with the
:MEASure:ITEM setting.
• When superimposing a DC voltage of
±5 V (during low Z high accuracy mode operation,
±2.5 V) or above, refer to "Appendix5.1 How to Supply a DC Bias Voltage"(p. A7).
• When superimposing a DC current on a coil or the like, refer to "Appendix5.2 How to Sup-
ply a DC Bias Current"(p. A9).
• If the total value for the measurement signal level (AC level setting value
× + DC bias
setting value) will become > [V], the measurement signal cannot be raised any
higher. Reduce the AC level or DC bias value, and then configure the setting.
During low Z high accuracy mode operation, the AC level and DC bias value can be set
such that the total value is less than or equal to [V].
Use or to set the DC bias.

• Settable range:
-5.00 V to 5.00 V (Normal mode)
-2.50 V to 2.50 V (Low Z high accuracy mode)
• If you make a mistake during input:
press to cancel the input and start again.
