Range parameters

The following setup parameters are available. Source or Measure XXXX is decided

by the source setting.

Source Volts: Spot For the voltage source. Selects the range operation AUTO

(automatic ranging) or FIXED (fixed range) for the constant

voltage output and the source side voltage measurement.

Measure Amps For the voltage source. Selects the range operation AUTO or

FIXED for the current measurement.

Source Amps: Spot For the current source. Selects the range operation AUTO or

FIXED for the constant current output and the source side

current measurement.

Measure Volts For the current source. Selects the range operation AUTO or

FIXED for the voltage measurement.

The right field is used to set the range value for the FIXED range operation, or the

minimum range value for the AUTO range operation. For the available range

values, see “Output and Measurement Ranges” on page 2-11.

NOTE If the range operation is AUTO, the channel automatically uses the range which

provides the best resolution for the source output value or the measurement value.

NOTE If the pulse output is ON and the range operation is AUTO, the measurement

channel uses the minimum range which covers the Limit (Compliance) value.

Measure Ohms Selects the resistance measurement operation AUTO,

FIXED, or V/I.

The right field is used to set the resistance measurement range value for the FIXED

operation, or the minimum and maximum ranges for the AUTO operation. For the

available range values, see Table 2-7 on page 2-15. This setup field is not available

for the V/I operation.

For AUTO and FIXED, the channel performs resistance measurement by using the

current source and voltage measure condition automatically set by the resistance

measurement range setting.
