Local sense connections
Local sense (2-wire) connections do not compensate for the voltage drop in the connections to the
instrument under test.
When using local sense, the remote sense terminals cannot be disconnected.
To use the local sense terminals:
1. Connect the positive (+) terminals to the sense positive (S+) terminals, as shown in the following
figure.
Figure 13: Local sense connections
2. Connect the negative (-) terminals to the sense negative (S-) terminals to create a short circuit
using short clips or electric wire.
3. Connect the Series 2230G front-panel positive and negative terminals to the instrument under
test.
Do not disconnect the remote sense wires, even when remote sense is not used. Doing so
will cause erratic behavior and may damage the power supply.
