However, it can be internally disconnected from the ground for making the floating
condition. This setup is used for connecting the source channels in series.
To specify the low terminal status, perform the following procedure. Setting is not
saved. Turning off the instrument sets the status to the grounded.
1. Press the Config > Source > Connection function keys. This opens the Output
Connection dialog box.
