D2. Secondary measurement data. Turns orange if the data exceeds the Limit value.
For the limit test, D2 displays PASS or FAIL instead of the measurement data.
Mode Changes the assist keys to VOLTS (V) and AMPS (I) used to
select the source function.
VOLTS (V) sets the voltage source.
AMPS (I) sets the current source.
Source Changes the assist keys to the unit keys shown below.
V, mV, and V for the voltage source
pA, nA, A, mA, and A for the current source
First, enter or set the output value by using the numeric/alpha
keys, rotary knob, and arrow keys. Then press one of the unit
keys to apply the value.
Limit Changes the assist keys to the unit keys shown below.
pA, nA, A, mA, and A for the current compliance
V, mV, and V for the voltage compliance
First, enter or set the limit value by using the numeric/alpha
keys, rotary knob, and arrow keys. Then press one of the unit
keys to apply the value.
Measure Changes the assist keys to AMPS (I), VOLTS (V), OHMS (R),
and WATTS (P) used to select the measurement function.
AMPS (I) sets the current measurement.
VOLTS (V) sets the voltage measurement.
OHMS (R) sets the resistance measurement.
WATTS (P) sets the power measurement.
Resistance data is given by Resistance=Vmeas/Imeas.
Power data is given by Power=VmeasImeas.
In the above formula, Vmeas is the voltage measurement data,
and Imeas is the current measurement data.
