Application Notes
Every application requires a specific set of instrument settings to make that particular measurement. However, the factory default boot-up conditions may be very different from those of your commonly used applications. If your most common measurements require many changes to the default settings, then it can be very annoying and tedious to modify them every time you power up the instrument. ,
One example of this is a low resistance measurement made using a Source/Measure Unit (SMU). An accurate measurement of this type requires you to place the SMU into current source mode and measure using a 4-wire (Kelvin) connection scheme. Unfortunately, the SMU’s default boot-up state is to be in voltage source mode and a 2-wire connection configuration. Therefore, if you frequently make low resistance measurements every time you power up the instrument you have to change the source mode from voltage to current and the connection setting from 2-wire to 4-wire.
