To test input resistance
This test checks the input resistance of the vertical inputs. A four- wire measurement
is used to accurately measure the 50
Ω
and 1 M
Ω
inputs.
Specification: 1 M
Ω
±1% and 50
Ω
±1.5%
Equipment Required
Procedure
1
Set up the multimeter to make a four- wire resistance measurement.
2
Assemble the test cables.
a Use the two BNC- to- banana adapters to connect one end of each BNC cable to
the four- wire resistance connections on the multimeter.
b Connect the free ends of the cables to the BNC tee.
See Figure 3- 2.

Input Resistance Equipment Setup
3
Connect the male end of the BNC tee to the channel 1 input of the oscilloscope.
4
Press Default Setup to set the oscilloscope to default conditions.
5
Press the Input key for Channel 1 to select 1 M
Ω
, then 50
Ω
, and verify resistance
readings of 1 M
Ω
±10 k
Ω
and 50
Ω
±0.75
Ω
respectively.
6
Record the readings in the Performance Test Record.
7
Repeat steps 3 through 6 on the remaining channels, and on the external trigger
of the oscilloscope.
