Switch System Reference Manual
Make sure the INPUTS switch is in the correct position. To use front panel
inputs, it must be in the "F" (out) position. For switching modules, it must be in
the "R" (in) position.
If a switching channel is presently closed (displayed), press OPEN to open it.
Select the ohms measurement function by pressing Ω2 or Ω4.

Connect the resistance(s) to be measured.
Front panel inputs — Do not apply more than 1000V peak between
INPUT HI and LO or instrument damage may occur.
Model 7702 switching module — Do not apply more than 300V DC or
RMS between input high (H) or input low (L), or switching module
damage may occur.
The 7702 module is safe to use with the 500V source of the 7751 module. The
V-source is energy limited and classified as a non-hazardous source per
EN61010.
If using a switching module, perform the following steps to close the desired chan-
nel. Keep in mind, that for Ω4 measurements, you will close the primary (INPUT)
channel (1 through 20). The paired channel will close automatically.
