system setup menus. These menus allow you to choose options to set
up your instrument for your applications. Select a setup item by
either scrolling the navigation control or using the arrow keys to
highlight an icon. Then press ENTER.
An example of the options that are available when you select the
Settings option under Measure is shown below.
Simple voltage output and current
measurement
The following example demonstrates the steps to configure a voltage
output and perform a precision voltage and current measurement
using the default instrument configuration.
Connect the DUT (for this example, a 1 kΩ resistor) to the output
binding post on the front panel. For details, refer to Two-wire
connection. Y ou can also use four- wire connections to compensate
for voltage drops on the load leads.
To set the voltage and current limit on the front
panel:
1. Press the H ome key. The Home screen is displayed.
2. Press the V-Set soft key. The editing w indow is displayed at the
bottom.
3. Set the voltage to 5 V. Enter 5 using the numerical keys on the
right of the front panel. Y ou can also change the value using
either the arrows keys or navigation control.
4. Press the I-L imit soft key. The editing window is displayed at
the bottom.
5. Set the current limit to 1 A. Press ENTER.
