Learning Basic Measurement Procedure

Setting up basic measurement conditions

This section describes how to set up basic measurement conditions for
capacitor measurement. For an actual measurement (for example,
measurement that provides better accuracy or measurement based on
measurement time), you need to set up measurement conditions that are
appropriate to the task, not necessarily those described here.
Initializing the Instrument
This section describes how to return the settings of the E4981A to their preset
values.
Step 1. Press the [Preset] key.

How the instrument is initialized
When you initialize the instrument into this state, all
basic parameters configurable through the front panel
and SCPI commands are cleared. (You get the same
