Basic source-measure procedure
Output control
Use the ON/OFF OUTPUT key to turn the SourceMeter output on or off for basic source-
measure situations. With the output on, the red ON/OFF OUTPUT indicator light will be on.
The indicator light turns off when the output is turned off.
You can also control the output off state (normal, zero, or guard) and program the instrument
for auto output off operation. See Section 12 for complete details on these aspects.
