124 conductors maximum. #16 AWG maximum wire size with 0.092 inch O.D. 36 conductors
per card maximum.
MAXIMUM SIGNAL LEVEL: Channels 1–60: 300V DC or RMS, 1A switched (2A carry), 60W, 125VA.

NOTES
1. Open detector enabled during thermocouple measurements. Minimum signal level 10mV, 10μA.
2. 3706A mainframe with all DMM backplane relays disconnected. Maximum two card backplane relays closed.
3. Connections made using 3720-ST accessory.
4. Scanning script local to 3706A mainframe, within same bank, and break before make switching.
5. 3706A mainframe with autorange off, limits off, dmm.autozero=0, dmm.autodelay=0, 4½ digits (NPLC=0.006),
for ACV dmm.detectorbandwidth=300, for OHMs dmm.offsetcompensation=off, dmm.opendetector=off.
Scanning script local to mainframe, sequential scan within same bank (2 pole) or card (4 pole), and break
before make switching.
