To manually set the Offset use the “+” and “-” soft keys to increase and decrease the
resistance value. Press the “Enter” soft key to accept the new value or press the
“Esc” soft key to return to the previous screen without saving.
To automatically set an Offset value, set the output voltage, current, and frequency to
the values that will be used on the DUT and connect the test cables and all test
fixturing to the instrument. Next, connect the ends of the test cables together and
press the TEST button. The instrument will now read the lead resistance and update
Offset parameter automatically. Press the “Enter” soft key to accept the new value or
press the “Esc” soft key to exit without saving.
NOTE: do not connect the DUT to the instrument when performing an offset.
This will create erroneous results when a test is performed.
