Warning
When GROUND MODE is set to OFF, the DUT, fixtures or
connected instrumentation cannot be grounded. This will
short circuit the internal circuitry during a test.
For ACW and DCW tests, if it is not known whether the
DUT test setup is grounded or not, always set GROUND
MODE to ON.
Only set GROUND MODE to OFF when the DUT is
floating electrically.
Steps
1.
Press the UTILITY key on the front
panel when the tester is in EDIT status.
The display will go from the normal
EDIT status to the MANU Utility menu
