3. Select the SLOW integration rate with the RATE key.
4. Set the Series 3700 for the 1 range, and make sure the FILTER is on. Enable OC+ (offset-
compensated ohms). (Use OC+ for 1 and 10range verification.)
5. Recalculate reading limits based on actual discrete resistor resistance values.
6. Repeat using the 10discrete resistor on the 10 range.
