value or reference value, or open the measurement terminals at the end of the device
side. Then, click the Measure... button.
If you extend the measurement cables to the device end by using
the four terminal
pairs method, do not forget to connect following terminals together at the device
end.
• the high potential (Hp) terminal and the high current (Hc) termin
al
• the low potential (Lp) terminal and the low current (Lc) terminal
If the standard is used, click the Advanced Options... button and enter
the reference
value to the OPEN Reference entry fields. If you do not use the standard, enter 0 to
the fields.
Short Correction This check box is effective after the short cor
rection data is
measured, and is used to
enable or disable the short correction. Uncheck this box to disable the correction.
To measure the correction data, connect the short st
andard that has the calibration
value or reference value, or directly connect the measurement terminals at the end of
the device side. Then, click the Measure... button.
If the standard is used, click the Advanced Options... button and enter
the reference
value to the SHORT Reference entry fields. If you do not use the standard, enter 0 to
the fields.

ion data i
s measured, and is used to
enable or disable the load correction. Uncheck this box to disable the correction.
To measure the correction data, connect the load standar
d that has the calibration
value or reference value. Then, click the Measure... button.
Before performing the load correction data measurement, click
the Advanced
Options... button and enter the reference value to the LOAD Reference entry fields.
