4.2.1 Open Correction [OPEN]
The LCR-6000 Series’ OPEN correction capability
cancels errors due to the stray admittance (G, B) in
parallel with the device under test (Refer to Figure 4-3).

Stray Admittance
The OPEN correction data is taken at all preset
frequency points, independent of the test frequency you
set. Refer to the tables on page 128 for the trimming
frequency point lists for each model.
To perform open correction
Step 1. Press the [Measure] key.
Step 2. Press the [OPEN SHORT] soft-key.
Step 3. Use the cursor key to select the [OPEN] field.
Soft-key
Function
ON
Enables open correction.
OFF
Disables open correction.
MEAS OPEN
Starts open correction (AC).
DCR OPEN
Starts open correction (DC).
Step 4. Press the [MEAS OPEN] or [DCR OPEN]
soft-key. A dialog message, “Open-circuit the
test terminals” will appear.
Step 5. Connect the test fixture to the BNC terminals.
Do not connect the DUT to the fixture.
Step 6. Press the [OK] soft-key. The LCR-6000 will
then measured the open admittances
(capacitance and conductance) at the all test
frequency points.
