AutoRange issues where The Model 100 Series spends so much time AutoRanging that a measurement is never acquired. The best solution is to improve the shielding, but if that isn’t possible please use the manual ranging. - Page 13 The exponential helps reduce noise yet is least affected by older measurements and so tracks changes well. NOTE: Filtering affects both the displayed and logged data. For more information, please refer to the AMETRIX Technote 4: An In-Depth Discussion of Digital Filter Options in the AMETRIX Model 100 Series Picoammeters.
