Standby Channel Definition
Standby Channel Definition
The Standby Channel Definition window is opened by clicking the Standby button,
and is used to define the standby channels and set the standby mode. See “Standby
Function” on page 7-37.
The standby channel is the channel for maintaining specified output when the
standby mo
de is ON and in the non-measurement state. The standby channels will
be in the standby state, while the other channels will be in the idle state which is 0 V
output and 100 μA compliance. When the standby mode is OFF and in the
non-measurement state, all channels will be in the idle state.
