Basic DMM measurements — front panel inputs.
Closing and opening channels — system channel operation.
Simple scanning.
Trigger and return readings — remote programming.
For remote operations, you can use the internal web page of the Model 2701 to
send commands, queries, and take readings. See "Internal web page" in
Section 10 for details.
For the exercises, it is not necessary to connect an input signal or DUT
to the instrument (front panel inputs or switching module inputs).
However, if you decide to use an input signal, it is recommended that
you keep it at a nonhazardous level (<42V) while learning to use the
instrument.
When using the front panel input terminals, the INPUT switch must be in the
"F" (out) position. The INPUT switch is located on the right side of the front
panel near the input terminals. When using a switching module, the switch must
be in the "R" (in) position.
