2-Wire Versus 1-Wire Mode<br />
Features and Functions 3<br />
You can configure the 34923A, 34925A, and 34933A modules for 2- wire<br />
(differential) or 1- wire (single ended) measurements. Detailed instructions<br />
for these configuration options can be found in the individual User’s<br />
Guides shipped with the modules. If you change the module configuration,<br />
you must cycle power on the <strong>34980A</strong> to activate the new setting.<br />
To determine whether the module is in the 2- wire or 1- wire<br />
configuration, check the module description shown on the front panel<br />
when the module is selected, or send the SYSTem:CTYPe? or<br />
SYSTem:CDEScription? command. For example, the SYSTem:CTYPe?<br />
response for the 34923A will be either “34923A” (differential mode) or<br />
“34923A- 1W” (single- ended mode).<br />
If you are using terminal blocks with these modules, be sure to use the<br />
corresponding 2- wire or 1- wire terminal block.<br />
The module configuration is stored in non- volatile memory on the<br />
module and does not change when you remove the module from the<br />
mainframe, after a Factory Reset (*RST command), or after an<br />
Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command).<br />
Front Panel Operation: Module (Configure) > MODE NEXT POWER-ON<br />
After selecting the 2- wire (“WIRE2”) or 1- wire (“WIRE1”), you must cycle<br />
power on the <strong>34980A</strong> to activate the new setting.<br />
Remote Interface Operation: The following command selects the 1- wire<br />
configuration on the module in slot 3. The new configuration will not take<br />
effect until you cycle power on the <strong>34980A</strong>.<br />
