3-12. Conditions That Activate the 5725A

When the 5725A is connected to the 5700A, and is selected as the amplifier for the active output function, it supplies an output under the conditions shown in the following list. (These conditions are the same as VOLTAGE OPERATE and CURRENT OPERATE as previously described.)

∙Whenever current above 2.2A is selected and the 5700A is set to operate. (Output available at the 5725A binding posts.)

∙Whenever ac voltage in the 220-1100V range is selected and the 5700A is set to operate. Note that the 5725A takes over the 1100V ac range of the 5700A if the 5725A is selected as the voltage amplifier in a setup menu. (Output available at the 5700A binding posts.)

∙Whenever the 5700A BOOST key is toggled on while the 5700A output setting is in the operating range of the 5725A, voltage or current. (Output location is 5725A for current, 5700A for voltage.)

∙If the "Range" softkey is set to "LOCKED" while supplying a current greater than 2.2A, then the 5725A stays active if the 5700A output setting is adjusted down to 0A dc, or down to 1A ac. (Output available at the 5725A binding posts.)

Regardless of the "BOOST AMP TYPES" setting in the 5700A setup menus, all unamplified 5700A current is supplied through the 5725A binding posts when, on the 5700A, the current output location is set to "5725A"; the 5700A output is set to any ac or dc current level; and the 5700A OPERATE annunciator is lit.
