Features and Functions 3<br />
You can specify the number of times the instrument will sweep through<br />
the scan list. When the specified number of sweeps have occurred, the<br />
scan stops. For more information, refer to “Sweep Count” on page 117.<br />
An externally- controlled scan can also include a read of a digital port<br />
or a read of the totalizer count on the digital modules. When the<br />
channel advance reaches the first digital channel, the instrument scans<br />
through all of the digital channels in that slot (only one channel<br />
advance signal is required).<br />
You can configure the list of channels for 4- wire external scanning<br />
without the internal DMM. When enabled, the instrument automatically<br />
pairs channel n in Bank 1 with channel n+20 in Bank 2 (34921A,<br />
34923A, 34925A) or n+35 (34922A, 34924A) to provide the source and<br />
sense connections. For example, make the source connections to the HI<br />
and LO terminals on channel 2 in Bank 1 and the sense connections to<br />
the HI and LO terminals on channel 22 (or 37) in Bank 2.<br />
Front Panel Operation: To select the channel advance source, choose the<br />
