Measurement Fault Detection Order
Out-of-Range Detection Function
Examples of Out-of-Range Faults
Current Monitor Function
The instrument supplies constant measurement current through the DUT via the H
CUR
and L
CUR
probes. A
current monitor fault occurs if constant current cannot be attained. If the contact check and voltage level mon-
itor results are normal, the out-of-range and comparator result displays indicate “Hi”.
Example of Current Monitor Fault
• Broken DUT (open work)
• H
CUR
or L
CUR
probe contact fault
• H
CUR
or L
CUR
cable break
Measurement Fault Detection
Display
EXT I/O signal
Measurement fault detection
proceeds in the order shown at
the left, ending with display of
the first detected error.
Corresponding measurement
fault signals are also output at
the EXT I/O connector.

Out-of-Range Detection
Measurement Example
The measured value is outside of the
measurement range.
Attempting to measure 13 k
with the 10 k
range selected
The relative tolerance (%) display of
the measured value exceeds the dis-
play range (999.999%).
Measuring 500
(+2400%) with a reference value of 20
The zero-adjusted value is outside of
the display range.
In the 1
range with 0.5
zero-adjustment in effect, measuring 0.1
provides
a zero-adjusted value of -0.4
, which is outside of the display range.
While measuring, input voltage ex-
ceed the A/D converter input range.
