•
If you change the measurement frequency during AC measurement using the HOLD setting of a sample
whose impedance varies with frequency, you may not be able to perform measurement using the same
range. In this case, change the measurement range setting.
•
If
OVER FLOW
(
UNDER FLOW
) is indicated as the measured value, measurement cannot be performed
with the current measurement range. Change the measurement range or change to the AUTO setting so
that the instrument can select an optimal range automatically.
•
The measurement range is set based on the total impedance of the sample and measurement cable.
Consequently, you may not be able to perform measurement if you set the measurement range using the
HOLD setting based solely on the sample’s impedance (for example, if the measurement cable’s parasitic
Z [Y] value is large, as it is in long cables).
In this case, perform correction, check the sample’s impedance and the fixture’s residual component, and
determine the measurement range based on those values.

•
Available range settings are limited based on the measurement frequency and cable length settings.
