1-32 Getting Started Model 2700 Multimeter/Switch System User’s Manual
Exercise 2 — Closing and opening channels (system channel operation)
The exercise in Table 1-7 demonstrates a sequence to close and open channels of a
Mode 7700 installed in slot 1 of the mainframe.
Simple scanning
NOTE See Section 7 for details on scanning.
With at least one multiplexer switching module (i.e., Model 7700) installed in the
mainframe, the instrument can scan channels that are valid for the selected function.
For front panel operation, Figure 1-7 shows the three basic steps to configure and run a
simple scan. The differences between the STEP function and the SCAN function involve
the reading count and the timer.
Reading count (RDG CT) — For both STEP and SCAN, the reading count specifies the
number of readings to store in the buffer. For STEP, the reading count determines the
number of channels to scan.
