Ranging Mode
The Keysight E5260/E5270 provides the following operation modes for the
measurement range and the output range. The ranging mode must be set for each
channel.
• “Auto Ranging”
• “Limited Auto Ranging”
• “Compliance Range”
• “Fixed Range”
To Set the Ranging Mode
The following points must be noted when setting the ranging mode.
For measurement
channels
• If you do not specify the ranging mode, the auto ranging mode is set
automatically.
• For the channels that perform Vf/Vm (voltage force and voltage measurement)
or If/Im (current force and current measurement), the measurement range is
always the same as the output range.
• For measurement with pulse output, the measurement channel uses the
compliance range or the specified fixed range. The channel cannot perform the
auto ranging operation or the limited auto ranging operation.
• If the voltage output range is changed when the DV, DI, XE, or CL command is
executed, the voltage measurement range is automatically set to the voltage
output range or the compliance range.
• If the current output range is changed when the DV, DI, XE, DZ, or CL
command is executed, the current measurement range is automatically set to the
current output range or the compliance range.
For output
channels
• The auto ranging mode and the limited auto ranging mode are available for the
output channels.
• When the voltage output range or the voltage compliance range is changed, the
channel forces 0 V at that moment.
