6.3 Setting the Output Scaling
Procedure
Specifying the Main Setting (MAX)
1.
Flip the
SCALE
switch to the MAX side.
2.
Turn the
main setting
dials to specify the main setting (MAX).
Specifying the Main Setting (MIN)
3.
Flip the
SCALE
switch to the MIN side.
4.
Turn the
main setting
dials to specify the main setting (MIN).
Setting the minimum value to a value other than ±0 (zero) causes the Non Zero indicator to turn on.

2. Set main setting (MAX).
4. Set main setting (MIN).
Example of s10.0000 V
SCALE switch
1. Flip to the MAX side.
3. Flip to the MIN side.
Explanation
Scaling is a feature used to set the maximum value (main setting (MAX)) and minimum value (main
setting (MIN)) of the output range to your liking within the source range of each range. Output divider,
deviation, and sweep features operate within this scale range. Scaling cannot be used in high
resolution mode.
Specifying the Main Setting (MAX) and Main Setting (MIN)
You can set these values within the range that meets the following conditions.
• The main setting (MAX) must be greater than or equal to the main setting (MIN).
• If both the main setting (MAX) and main setting (MIN) are negative, the absolute value of the main
setting (MAX) must be greater than or equal to that of the main setting (MIN).
• You cannot set the main setting (MAX) to a negative value and the main setting (MIN) to a positive
value.
• For details on setting the main setting (MAX) and main setting (MIN) and the resulting conditions,
see the following table.
Original Polarities of
the Main Setting (MAX)
and Main Setting (MIN)
Setup Operation
Resulting Condition
Both positive
Set MAX less than or equal to MIN.
MIN = MAX (the specified MAX value)
Set MIN greater than or equal to MAX
MAX=MIN (the specified MIN value)
Set MAX to negative
with the POLARITY switch
MIN is also set to negative.
Set MIN to negative
with the POLARITY switch
MAX stays positive.
