*1.This table assumes that you have issued the :CALC:COMP:OGB command on
page 223 by specifying 10 so that bins 1 through 10 serve as good bins while bins 11
through 13 serve as bad bins.
*2.When overload is detected at a measurement point that is not used for bin sorting, bin
sorting is operated normally. Therefore the bin sort result is not 14 in this case.
*3.
The instrument outputs a measured value normally. However, the output may be an
invalid value that was measured while there was a bad contact.
