Model 6485 Picoammeter Instruction Manual Getting Started 1-15
Default settings
The Model 6485 can be restored to one of five setup configurations; factory default
(FACT), three user-saved (USR0, USR1 and USR2), and bus default (GPIB). As shipped
from the factory, Model 6485 powers up to the factory default settings. Factory default set-
tings provide a general purpose setup for front panel operation, while the bus default
(GPIB) settings do the same for remote operation. Factory and GPIB default settings are
listed in Table 1-2.
The instrument will power up to whichever default setup was saved as the power-on setup.
NOTE At the factory, the factory default setup is saved into the USR0, USR1, and USR2
setups.
