Basic Operation
For example, Last is selected, and the voltage value is set to 20V. After the
instrument is powered off and then powered on, the voltage displayed on the
interface is 20V.
5.7 Sense Function (Sense)
This menu item is used to switch the load to local measurement or remote
sensing.
The IT8000 series load supports two connection methods: Local measurement
and Remote sensing. The remote sensing is used for maximizing measurement
accuracy. (Refer to 2.4 Connecting the Device Under Test (DUT))
The procedures to set the menu item are as follows.
1. Press the composite keys [Shift]+[P-set] (System) on the front panel to en-
ter the system menu.
2. Press the Up/Down key or turn the knob to select the Sense and press
[Enter].
3. Press the Left / Right key or turn the knob to adjust the value of this
parameter.
• Off: Default value, indicates turn the sense function off.
• On: Indicates turn the sense function on.
4. After the parameter settings are complete, press [Enter].
5.8 Select Trigger Source (Trig Source)
For the IT8000 series load, the List and data logging functions can be triggered
for running by the following methods:
• Manual: Default value, indicates the trigger occurs when the
[Shift]+[On/Off] (Trigger) keys are pressed from the front panel.
• Bus: Indicates the trigger occurs via the communication cables. When the
trigger command *TRG is received, the IT8000 instrument generates a
trigger.
• External: Indicates the trigger occurs via the pin 4 of the digital I/O interface
(P-IO).
For details, see 5.11.4 IO–4. Ext-Trig, Not-Invert.
The List function and the data logging function have the same steps for select-
ing the trigger source. They need to be set separately in different menu items
