Fixture Extension
The 42942A is designed to connect directly to the 4294A. Thus, the measurement
point on the four-terminal pair cannot be extended by using four extension cables
as shown in Figure 3-6 (A). The 42942A must be directly connected to the 4294A
as shown in Figure 3-6 (B). For fixture extension, use a coaxial cable connected to
the 7-mm OUTPUT port on the 42942A. Note that the 42942A’s specified
accuracy will no longer be assured with this extension. For calibration of the
extended fixture, refer to the 4294A operation manual.
