Resistance Measurement Configuration
Voltage Limited Measurements
Voltage limited resistance measurements clamp the open circuit voltage
to predefined limits.
Voltage limits apply only to 4-wire ohms measurements.
Voltage limited resistance measurements are only available on
the 10 and 100
2-wire or 4-wire ohms, and then Voltage Limited measurements are
enabled, the range will be set to the highest valid range (either 10
or 100 ).
The open circuit voltage can be limited to 20 mV, 100 mV, or 500 mV.
Setting the Low Power measurement mode will cancel the
Voltage Limited mode.
Front panel operation: Enable or disable the voltage limit under the
5: LOW VOLT
command in the MEASure menu.
Set the voltage limit under the 6: LoV LIMIT
MEASure menu.
Remote operation: the following command enables or disable the
low voltage limit mode:
SENSe:FRESistance:VOLTage:LIMit {OFF|ON}
Set the limit with the following command:
SENSe:FRESistance:VOLTage:LIMit:VALue {< value >|MIN|MAX}
