Resistance measurements (2- and 4-wire)
The ranges for resistance measurement are 100 , 1K , 10k , 100k , 1M , 10M , and
100M , with a sensitivity of 100
(on 100 range). There are two modes for measuring the
resistance:
2-wire mode (refer to Figure 3-6) and 4-wire mode (refer to Figure 3-7). In 4-wire mode, the test
current is sourced to the test resistance through one pair of test leads, and the test voltage across
the resistance under test is measured from another set of test leads. As a result, the 4-wire mode
is more accurate for low resistance measurements. The disadvantage of this is the longer settling
time for 4-wire mode.
Figures 3-8 and 3-9 show the input terminal connections on the rear panel
for 2-wire mode and 4-wire mode respectively.
