MODE Bias Port, and Bias Mode state). When the setup mode is changed,
all setup data is cleared (that is, connection data is set so that all
relays are open).
DEFINE For defining labels for the E5250A input ports to be used in
LABEL MEMORY SETUP PANEL.

Confirming the E5250A Card Configurations

Select SHOW CONFIG softkey. SHOW CONFIGURATION MENU is displayed
on the 4155/4156 to show which card is installed in each E5250A slot.
If card is the E5252A, the following comment is displayed:
E5252A 10x12 Matrix Switch
If card is the E5255A, a comment similar to following example is displayed:
E5255A 24 (8x3) Channel Multiplexer
Block 1 : Input 1, No Resistance
Block 2 : Input 2, No Resistance
Block 3 : Input 3, No Resistance
For Input N, the N can be 1 to 6, and indicates which E5250A SMU input port is
connected to the IV input of each multiplexer block. The next parameter indicates if
resistor is used between input Bias Port and IV Input ports as follows:
• No Resistance: no resistor used.
• With Resistance: resistor is used.
