Equipment setup

1) With all the devices switched off, place the components used with the Multiplexer
Measurement Unit. In order to achieve high precision measurement, it is important to
reduce any source of electromagnetic interference: avoid operating the system with a
mobile phone or any other electronic devices in the proximity of the SMU and Ossila
Multiplexer Measurement Unit; maximise the distance between the measurement units
(SMU and Ossila Multiplexer) and the computer case.
