Channel specifiers
To use the Model 3732 ultra-high density reed relay matrix card, you will need to understand channel
specifiers and the two notation styles used with the Model 3732 card.
A channel specifier is a four or five-digit alphanumeric sequence that specifies channels for use with
close and open operations, scans, and channel patterns. The first digit is always the slot number of
the card in the mainframe. The remaining digits vary depending on the type of card. For the Model
3732 card, the channel descriptor for the matrix channel type has been extended, allowing you to
denote the desired bank under some configurations.
NOTE

3700A System Switch/Multimeter Reference Manual (part number 3700AS-901-01) on the Product
Information CD-ROM that came with your instrument.
