Combining 2-pole and 4-pole switching (Models 2001/2002)
The Model 2000-SCAN can combine 2- and 4-pole switching in various combinations. For
example, you might require 4-pole switching for only two resistors, while the remaining
resistors could be tested using conventional 2-pole switching.
Figure 3-3
switching is used only for device 1 (connected to channels 1 and 6) and device 2 (connected to
channels 2 and 7). Six more resistors are tested using 2-pole switching.

(Model 2001/2002)
Measurement functions for each scanner channel are defined using the INTERNAL-CHANS
menu available by pressing CONFIG-CHAN (see
page 3–13). Measurement functions for this test would be set up as follows:
Channels 1 and 2: Ω4W
Channels 3, 4, 5 and 8, 10: Ω2W
Note that functions cannot be defined for channels 6 and 7 with this application because these
channels are paired with channels 1 and 2 for 4-pole switching.
