organization of the main menu.
Figure 46: 2470 main menu
The main menu includes submenus that are labeled in green across the top of the display. Selecting
an option in a submenu opens an interactive screen.
QuickSet menu
The QuickSet menu, which is centered under Source and Measure on the main
menu, allows you to:
Select predefined setups for the source and measure functions
Use the Performance slider to adjust for performance (resolution versus
speed)
Select Quick Setups that provide instrument-type emulation
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 2470 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).
