DC Input Resistance
Normally, the multimeter’s input resistance is fixed at 10 MΩ 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
Ω 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
Ω (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 MΩ mode (fixed
resistance for all dc voltage ranges) or the >10 G
Ω mode. The default
is 10 M
Ω.
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
Ω for all ranges. With AUTO ON, the input resistance
is set to >10 G
Ω for the three lowest dc voltage ranges. The CONFigure
and MEASure? commands automatically turn
AUTO OFF.
