Setting up measurement parameters
Set up the primary parameter and secondary parameter you want to measure.
The E4981A allows you to select the parameters from the following
combinations.
Each parameter is described below.
Cp: Capacitance value when considering equivalent parallel
resistance
Cs: Capacitance value when considering equivalent series
resistance
D: Dissipation factor
Q: Quality factor (inverse of D)
G: Equivalent parallel conductance
Rp: Equivalent parallel resistance
Rs: Equivalent series resistance
The procedure to set up the measurement parameters is described below.
Step 1. Press the [Display format] key.
Step 2. Press the MEAS DISPLAY softkey.
Step 3. Use the cursor key to select the FUNC field (as shown in Figure 3-3).
Step 4. Press the Cp or Cs softkey to select the primary parameter.
