DC Input Resistance
Normally, the multimeter’s input resistance is fixed at 10 M for all
dc voltage ranges to minimize noise pickup. To reduce the effects of
measurement loading errors, you can set the input resistance to greater
than 10 G
for the 100 mVdc, 1 Vdc, and 10 Vdc ranges.
Applies to dc voltage measurements and is disabled for all other functions.
The input resistance setting is stored in volatile memory; the
multimeter selects 10 M
(for all dc voltage ranges) when power
has been off or after a remote interface reset.
Front-Panel Operation: Select from the menu the 10 M mode (fixed
resistance for all dc voltage ranges) or the >10 G
mode. The default
is 10 M
.
3: INPUT R (MEAS MENU)
Remote Interface Operation: You can enable or disable the automatic
input resistance mode. With
AUTO OFF (default), the input resistance
is fixed at 10 M
for all ranges. With AUTO ON, the input resistance
is set to >10 G
for the three lowest dc voltage ranges. The CONFigure
and MEASure? commands automatically turn
AUTO OFF.
