Cablecompensate590 User Module - Keithley 4200A-SCS Reference Manual

Appendix B: Using a Model 590 C-V Analyzer

CableCompensate590 user module

The CableCompensate590 routine performs the 590 cable compensation procedure using the capacitor values
that are stored in the specified cable compensation file. The resultant compensation values generated by the
compensation process are stored in the same file.
Usage
