Editing Voltage Bias Values; Configuration Menus - Keithley 2500 User Manual

1-24 Getting Started

Editing voltage bias values

Use the following keys to edit voltage bias values:
• SRC1 or SRC2: selects the channel 1 (Src1) or channel 2 (Src2) source display field on
the lower line for editing. A blinking cursor will appear in the field to be edited. If no
key is pressed within a few seconds, the edit mode will be cancelled automatically.
• EDIT
• EDIT
these keys will automatically enable the source edit mode.
• RANGE
• Numeric keys (0-9) allow you to directly enter source values.
• EXIT exits the edit mode without waiting for the time-out period.
The basic procedure for editing source values is outlined below. See
measurement procedure,"
1. Press the SRC1 or SRC2 key so the blinking cursor is in either the channel 1 (Src1) or
channel 2 (Src2) source display field to be edited.
2. If desired, use the RANGE
lowest range possible for best accuracy.)
3. To simply increment or decrement the displayed source value, use the EDIT
keys to place the blinking cursor on the digit to be changed, then increment or decre-
ment the value with the EDIT
immediately; you need not press ENTER to complete the process.
4. To enter the source value directly, simply key in the desired value with the numeric
keys while the cursor is blinking. Again, the source value will be updated immediately.
Configuration menus
There are a number of configuration menus that can be accessed by pressing the CONFIG
key followed by the appropriate function or mode key. For example, you can configure the
measurement functions by pressing CONFIG then MSR1 (channel 1) or MSR2 (channel
2). Configuration menus, which are summarized in
available for the following operating modes:
• Measurement functions (MSR1, MSR2, RATIO, DELTA):
• Voltage source (SRC1 and SRC2):
• REL, FILTER, and RANGE:
• LIMIT:
• TRIG:
• SWEEP, DIGITS, SPEED, and STORE:
• ON/OFF OUTPUT and DISPLAY TOGGLE:
