Details
This user module is used for 590 cable compensation. You enter precise capacitance source values.
When this test is run, the capacitance source values are saved to a user-specified file. The user
module to perform cable compensation (CableCompensate590) can then access the capacitance
source values from this file.
The default parameter values for this user module are shown in the following figure. These are
suggested low and high values that can be used for cable compensation. You must replace these
values with the calibration values of the capacitance sources.
