Quick Start Guide

Integra Series  3

Getting started

Introduction

This Quick Start Guide is intended to get a new user familiar with the operation of 
the instrument. It summarizes operation for all basic measurement functions and 
most features of the Integra instruments. It also summarizes the operation of the 
Model 7700 switching module, which adds switching and scanning capabilities to 
an Integra measurement system. 

Topics that are not discussed in this guide include the following: Setups (saving 
and restoring), details on triggering, dry circuit ohms (Model 2750), limits and dig-
ital I/O, multiple channel operation and advanced scanning.

NOTE

In this guide, the term “Model 27xx” refers to all three Integra instru-
ments (Models 2700, 2701, and 2750). 

Reference

Details on all Model 27xx operations are provided in the Model 27xx 
User’s Manual. This includes important additional information on topics 
covered in the guide, and full details on topics not covered in this guide. 

Details on the Model 7700 switching module is covered in the Model 
27xx User’s Manual. Details on Model 7700 installation and connections 
are provided in the User’s Guide supplied with the switching module. 

Details on other Keithley switching modules are covered in the supplied 
User’s Guide. 

WARNING

Exercise extreme caution when a shock hazard is present. 
Lethal voltage may be present on cable connections or test fix-
tures. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) states 
that a shock hazard exists when voltage levels greater than 30V 
RMS, 42.4V peak, or 60VDC are present. A good safety practice 
is to expect that hazardous voltage is present in any unknown 
circuit before measuring. 

While learning to operate an Integra system, it is strongly rec-
ommended that only non-lethal signal levels be connected to 
the front panel or switching module inputs. 

Measure and switching capabilities

The basic measurement capabilities of an Integra system are summarized in
