Quick Setup options
When you press
QUICKSET
, the BASIC SOURCE/
MEASURE SETTINGS screen is displayed. From this menu,
you can:
• Choose the source and measure functions.
• Use the Performance slider to select the best balance
between measurement resolution and measurement
speed.
• Choose from a selection of Quick Setups that
automatically make the settings required for that setup,
turn the output on, and begin making measurements.
CAUTION
When you select a Quick Setup, the instrument turns
the output on. Carefully consider and configure the
appropriate output‑off state, source, and limits before
connecting the 2461 to a device that can deliver energy,
such as other voltage sources, batteries, capacitors, or
solar cells. Configure the settings that are recommended
for the instrument before making connections to the
device. Failure to consider the output‑off state, source,
and limits may result in damage to the instrument or to
the device under test (DUT).
