Setting up a test connection on the HYAMP III is straightforward, but differs
slightly by model.
3140/3145/3160 Set Up
3130 Set Up
Connect the black return test lead to the black Return terminal located on
the front panel of the instrument.
For 3140/3145/3160 models
connect the sense lead to the Sense(-)
terminal located just above the return terminal.
Clip the end of the black return test lead to the chassis ground of
the DUT.
Connect the red high current test lead to the red Current terminal on the
front panel of the instrument.
For 3140/3145/3160 models
connect the sense lead to the Sense(+)
terminal.
Connect the end of the red high current test lead clip to the ground/earth
contact of the DUT.
Push the provided current and return test leads into their mating terminal until
seated against the rubber grommet. Avoid excessive force in seating. If the
grommet becomes compressed, the lock feature may not activate. To release the
lock and remove the leads, push the lead in toward the instrument and then pull
back on the lead to fully remove lead.
DID YOU KNOW?
Always connect the ground return clip first and double check that both clips
have a solid connection to the DUT.
