Keysight E4980A/AL Precision LCR Meter 421
Troubleshooting
Check Items When Trouble Occurs
Clearly abnormal measured value
o Measurement of compensation data may have failed.
Measure the compensation data again. For how to measure correction data,
refer to“CORRECTION page” on page 112.
o If the measured value is still abnormal even after taking the above measure,
turn off the correction function.
Perform resistance measurement of 100 to 1 k DUT by using the
E4980A/AL’s fixture after turning off OPEN/SHORT/LOAD on the
CORRECTION page and setting cable length to zero. If a measured value
close to the DUT’s value is displayed, there is the possibility of correction
failure or inappropriate cable length.
o When the MULTI compensation is ON, check that the channel and the
definition method of the LOAD standard value are selected correctly.
Saving to USB memory fails
