Ranging Mode
Ranging Mode
The following ranging modes are available for the source output.
• FIXED (fixed range)
The channel uses the specified range only.
• AUTO (auto range)
The channel automatically uses the range which provides the best resolution for
the source output value. It is possible to specify the minimum range effective for
the auto range operation.
• BEST (best, only for the sweep source)
In the linear sweep mode, the channel automatically uses the minimum range
which covers the whole sweep output.
In the log sweep mode, the channel automatically uses the range which provides
the best resolution for each sweep step output.
Setting the Ranging Mode
The following points must be noted when setting the ranging mode.
• The pulsed source channel always uses the fixed range.
• To set the ranging mode for the DC (constant) source operation, see “Optional
Parameters” on page 4-18.
• To set the ranging mode for the sweep source operation, see “Sweep dialog box”
on page 4-30.
