Switching Matrix
The Switching Matrix screen is used to establish the GPIB connection with Agilent
B2200A/B2201A/E5250A switching matrix and define the B2200A/B2201A/E5250A input port
connections.
Switching Matrix Type: Displays the type of the switching matrix or No Switching Matrix.
GPIB Address: Specifies the GPIB address of the switching matrix. 1 to 30.
Poll: Confirms if the switching matrix of the specified GPIB address is connected to the B1500A.
Start Self Test: Starts the selftest of the switching matrix.
SWM IN#: Switching matrix input ports. Enter the label used to specify the input port to the right
entry field. The port name and the connected module name can be the label. The character : (colon)
cannot be used. Checking the Kelvin check box grays out the coupled even number port. Checking
the CMU check box grays out SWM IN10 for the E5250A or SWM IN14 for the B2200A/B2201A.
The input ports IN11 to IN14 are not available for the E5250A.
Kelvin: Check this box if this port is used for the Kelvin connection.
CMU: To perform capacitance measurement through the switching matrix, check this check box and
set CMU1:MF to the SWM IN9 for the E5250A or the SWM IN13 for the B2200A/B2201A. And
connect MFCMU to the Input 9 and 10 of the E5250A or the Input 13 and 14 of the
B2200A/B2201A. To perform capacitance compensation, see User's Guide.
Extended Configuration: Opens the Extended Configuration dialog box. See the next page.
Note: Standard revision of EasyEXPERT does not support the E5250. The E5250 control is a feature
of the B1540A-002/B1541A-002.
Note: The E5255A installed in the E5250A is not supported.
