By pressing the key
you enter the channel menu.
Pressing again
or
will lead back to the main menu.
2.2.1 Display
In the channel menu all parameters of the selected module are shown:
channel no.
cursor operating parameters
CH4 I1=+ 0.1234nA
1 CG
BIA
P1= 0.12345nW
2 CG U
BIA
1=
0.00 V
CHANGE
monitor diode polarity of input 1
indicator for applied bias voltage
monitor diode polarity of input 2
Only three parameters can be shown at a time, so there is a scroll function. All
parameters are sorted in a virtual list, which can be run through with the cursor:
I1=+ 0.1234nA
...
P1= 0.1234nW

BIA
1= 0.00 V
C2=1.12345A/W
C1=1.12345A/W
BIA2 = OFF
BIA1 = OFF
RNG2 =10.00nA

If you use the PDA8000-FWD:
Ifwd=1.1234mA Ifwd=
3.000mA
Ufwd=1.234 V
Ufwd= 1.551 V
