Resistance
This section describes how to configure the selected channel for 2-wire and 4-wire measurements from the front
panel. The measurement configurations for 2-wire and 4-wire resistance are same, below descriptions explained by
using 2-wire resistance measurements.
1. Connect resistance source to the module's screw terminals.
2-wire ohms:
4-wire ohms:
2. Press [Channel] > Measure, and select OHMS or OHMS 4W from the selection menu.
3. Press Range and use the knob or the front panel arrow keys to specify the measurement range. Auto
(only available when Scan is selected as the data acquisition mode) automatically selects the range for the
measurement based on the input. Autoranging is convenient, but it results in slower measurements than using a
manual range. Autoranging goes up a range at 120% of the present range, and down a range below 10% of the
present range. The Auto option is not available in DMM Digitize data acquisition mode.
