Keithley products are designed for use with electrical signals that are rated Measurement Category I and Measurement Category II, as described in the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Standard IEC 60664. Most measurement, control, and data I/O signals are Measurement Category I and must not be directly connected to mains voltage or to voltage sources with high transient over-voltages.
Page 6
To maintain protection from electric shock and fire, replacement components in mains circuits, including the power transformer, test leads, and input jacks, must be purchased from Keithley Instruments. Standard fuses, with applicable national safety ap- provals, may be used if the rating and type are the same. Other components that are not safety related may be purchased from other suppliers as long as they are equivalent to the original component.

7002-HD can be placed in the active listener state by addressing it to listen. ARM — Turns on when the Model 7002-HD is taken out of the idle state. A scan can only be performed with the Model 7002-HD out of the idle state.
The Model 7002-HD has an analog backplane that allows the rows or multiplexers of a Model 7002-HD series card installed in one card location to be connected to the rows or multiplexers of a 7002-HD series card installed in the other card loca- tion.
See the card manual for details on the particular card being used. Channel list and scan list The Model 7002-HD can perform two basic operations: it can close and open a list of channels, and it can scan through a list of channels. The following paragraphs explain how to enter channels for these operations.
Model 7002-HD User’s Manual Front Panel Operation Entering lists Perform the following steps to create a channel list or scan list using the front panel keys: Step 1: Make sure appropriate list is selected. Open/close operations use the channel list, and scan operations use the scan list.

Front Panel Operation Closing and opening channels One of the basic operations of the Model 7002-HD is to close (or open) one or more channels specified by the user. All the specified channels will either close or open at the same time. An exception to this is when the Single Channel mode is enabled.
Front Panel Operation Model 7002-HD User’s Manual Scanning channels The Model 7002-HD can scan through a specified list of channels. The order that the channels are presented in the scan list determines the channel order for the scan.

While in the idle state, the instrument can- not perform a scan. From the front panel, the Model 7002-HD is taken out of the idle state by pressing the STEP key. When not in the idle state (ARM indicator on) the scanning function is considered to be enabled.
Perform the following steps to scan channels: Step 1. Press OPEN ALL. Before configuring a scan, place the Model 7002-HD in the idle state by pressing OPEN ALL. This will stop any scan that is currently in process, open all channels, and place the Model 7002-HD in the idle state.

Front Panel Operation Model 7002-HD User’s Manual Trigger Link The Model 7002-HD has enhanced external triggering capabilities using the Trig- ger Link. The Trigger Link has six lines allowing up to six instruments to be con- trolled over this trigger bus.
(£0.8V) Trigger Link operation In general, Trigger Link input triggers to the Model 7002-HD are used to control scan operation. In order for the Model 7002-HD to respond to Trigger Link compat- ible triggers, the appropriate layers of the scan must be properly programmed. For example, if you want Trigger Link input triggers to control the channel scan pro- cess, you must program Channel Spacing for TRIGLINK trigger events.
Page 59
Model 7002-HD User’s Manual In general, external triggers can be used as events to control scan operation. In order for the Model 7002-HD to respond to external triggers, the appropriate layers of scan operation must be properly configured. ”Scan procedure” on page 4-13 explains how to program the three layers of the scan.
