7. Source the nominal full-scale resistance values for the 100 Ω to 10 MΩ ranges summarized in the
4-wire resistance verification data (on page B-15) table. Recalculate the limits based on the
actual value of the resistor and verify the reading is within the calculated limits.

4-wire resistance verification data
Use the following values to verify the performance of the Series 3700A. Actual values depend on
published specifications (see Calculating resistance reading limits (on page B-4)).

Verifying 2-wire resistance
Check the normal resistance function by connecting accurate resistance values to the Series 3700A
analog backplane connector and verifying that the displayed readings fall within specified limits.
