Step 7: Turn output on.
Turn the output on by pressing the TRIG key or the ON/OFF OUTPUT key. The OUTPUT
indicator will be on whenever a pulse is being sourced. During each pulse off-time, the
output will be off (indicator off).
If configured to output a finite number of pulses, the output will disable after the last pulse
is sourced. While sourcing pulses, you can disable the output at any time by pressing the
ON/OFF OUTPUT key.
Pulse-ohms measurements
NOTE Ohms source readback cannot be used for the Pulse Mode. Make sure that the
source is not in compliance when taking pulse-ohms readings. Section 4 covers
“Ohms source readback.”
Auto and Manual pulse-ohms measurements
While in the Pulse Mode, the Model 2430 can perform auto or manual ohms measure-
ments. After selecting and configuring the Pulse Mode as explained in this section, per-
form the “Auto ohms measurements” procedure or the “Manual ohms measurements”
procedure in Section 4.
For remote operation, see Section 4, “Remote ohms programming,” for the commands for
basic ohms measurements.
Offset-compensated pulse-ohms measurements
While in the Pulse Mode, offset-compensated ohms is available as a math function
(FCTN). After selecting and configuring the Pulse Mode as explained in this section, refer
to Section 8, “Math operations,” to perform offset-compensated ohms measurements.
For remote operation, see Section 8, “Remote math operations,” for the commands to per-
form offset-compensated ohms.
