Example 1: Close channel, make measurement using DMM operation method
When you assign a measurement function to a channel and press the Close key, the Close key
routes the input signal automatically to the DMM through the appropriate backplane relays. This
behavior is referred to as DMM operation.
Figure 46: Close channel and trigger measurement on instrument using the DMM method
1. Assign a measurement function of two-wire ohms to channel 1031:
a. Use navigation wheel to modify the channel designation from 001 to 031.
b. Use navigation wheel to select twowireohms as the measurement function.
2. Press the CLOSE key to close channel 1031.
3. Press the TRIG key to acquire and display a single measurement.
Voltage measurements (DC volts and AC volts)
The Series 3700A can make DC volt measurements from –10 nV to 300 V and AC volt
measurements from 100 nV to 300 V
RMS
(425 V peak for AC waveforms).
• DC volt input resistance: 100 mV through 10 V ranges: more than 10 GΩ
• 100 V and 300 V ranges: more than or equal to 10 MΩ
