Connections for testing 
The following figures show the physical connections for the front 
panel. Note that you must use either the front terminals or rear 
terminals — you cannot mix connections. The rear-panel 
connections are screw terminals. The front-panel connections are 
safety banana jacks. 
The example in this guide shows you how to make connections to 
the front panel and short the connections. 
For this example, you can make the connections with the insulated 
banana cables that are supplied with the Model 2461, the Keithley 
Instruments Model 8608 Safety Clip Lead Set. 
1.  Make sure the front-panel power switch is in the off (O) 
position. 
2.  Connect the red lead to the FORCE HI connection. 
3.  Connect the black lead to the FORCE LO connection.
