Procedure:

1.Set up the multimeter to make a 4-wire resistance measurement.

2.Use the BNC-to-banana adapters to connect one end of each BNC cable to the 4-wire resistance connections on the multimeter, and connect the free ends of the cables to the BNC Tee.

3.Connect the male end of the BNC tee to the channel 1 input of the oscilloscope module. Set up the oscilloscope module according to the following parameters in the order given:
