Model 2700 Multimeter/Switch System User’s Manual Getting Started 1-9
Pseudocards
Using remote programming, you can assign a pseudocard to an empty switching module
slot. With a pseudocard installed, the Model 2700 will operate as if the switching module
is installed in the Model 2700. This feature allows you to configure your system without
having the actual switching module installed in the unit. There is a pseudocard for every
Keithley Model 77xx series switching module. For details, see
“Pseudocards,” page 2-5.

1. Latching relays hold their open/close state after the mainframe is turned off. When turned on, all relays open after a few
seconds.
2. All multiplexers can be configured as two independent multiplexers.
3. The Models 7711 and 7712 have no measurement capabilities.
