8. Note the current reading on the display. If this current is to be sup
pressed. press the SUPPRESS button (SUPPRESS light on).
9. Select the V/I function by pressing the SHIFT button and then the
OHMS button. The V/I indicator light will turn on.
10. If the displayed resistance measurement is to be suppressed, press
the SUPPRESS button. Otherwise, take the resistance measure-
ments, in ohms, from the display.

NOTES
1. To exit the VII mode, press any function button.
2. Suppress can be used with V/I ohms in two different ways. If sup-
press is enabled with the instrument in the V/i ohms mode, the
displayed resistance value (not the current being measured) will be
suppressed. In this case, the instrument can be toggled between
amps and V/I ohms without cancelling the suppressed resistance
value. However, suppress will be temporarily ignored by switching to
amps, but it will be reinstated by returning to V/I ohms.
The current can be suppressed by placing the Model 617 in the amps
mode and then enabling suppress. Entering the V/I ohms mode after
suppress is enabled will not cancel the suppressed currant, and the
displayed resistance value will reflect the suppressed current (not a
suppressed resistance). Again, the instrument can be toggled bet-
ween VII ohms and amps without cancelling suppress, but the sup-
pressed value will be a current for both amps and VII ohms under
these conditions.
