With the automatic leakage compensation settings displayed (Figure
With automatic leakage compensation enabled, press the TEST FUNCTION button to advance the "f" cursor to the next field or exit Edit mode. When the cursor points to a threshold setting, use the UP and DOWN arrow buttons to increment and decrement the value, respectively. Nominal values for the start and stop thresholds are 1.3 and 1.2 pA, respectively. However, depending on the system leakage, other values may be necessary.
When automatic leakage compensation is disabled, the annunciator displays off (OFF) (Figure

NOTE
The instrument may reset all measurements when the automatic leakage compensation parameters are
changed.
NOTE
Disabling automatic leakage compensation prevents automatic exposure detection and the measurement of leakage current, and leakage measurements will display Not Available (NA).
Figure 3-16 shows the name of the calibration agency and the date the instrument was calibrated. The bottom three lines may be different on your instrument depending on what the calibration agency puts here.
