Savecablecompcaps590 User Module - Keithley 4200A-SCS Reference Manual

Appendix B: Using a Model 590 C-V Analyzer

SaveCableCompCaps590 user module

This function saves the nominal values of the capacitors used to do the 590 cable compensation procedure to the
indicated file. If no cable compensation file exists, this module creates one if the user has the proper system
permissions.
