4.8 Compensating for Thermal EMF Offset (Offset Voltage Compensation - OVC)
82
This function automatically compensates for offset voltage resulting from thermal emf or
internal instrument bias. (OVC: Offset Voltage Compensation)
See: "Appendix 9 Effect of Thermal EMF" (p. A23)
"3.1 Checking the Measurement Target" (p.48)
The following value is known to be a true resistance value from R
P
, the value measured
with current flowing in the positive direction, and R
N
, the value measured with current flow-
ing in the negative direction.
• When low-power resistance measurement is disabled.
From the 10 m range to the 1,000  range, the offset voltage correction function can be
turned on. From the 10 k range to the 1,000 m range, the OVC function cannot be
used.
• When low-power resistance measurement is enabled.
The offset voltage correction function will be automatically turned on for all ranges. This
function cannot be disabled.
