SAFETY
The following safety precautions

PRECAUTIONS
before operating the Model 199.

should be observed

This instrument is intended for use by qualified ~personnel who recognize shock hazards and are familiar with the safety precautions required to avoid possible injury. Read over the manual carefully before operating this instrument.

Exercise extreme caution when a shock hazard is present at the instrument's input. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) states that a shock hazard exists when voltage levels greater than 3OV rms or 42.4V peak are present. A good safety practice is to expect that a hazardous voltage is present in any unknown circuit before measuring.

Inspect the test leads for possible wear, cracks or breaks before each use. If any defects are found, replace the test leads.

For optimum safety do not touch the test leads or the instrument while power is applied to the circuit under test. Turn the power off and discharge all capacitors, before connecting or disconnecting the instrument. Always disconnect all unused test leads from the instrument.

Do not touch any object which could provide a current path to the common side of the ,+cuit under test or power line (earth) ground. Always make measurements with dry hands while standmg on a dry, insulated surface, capable of withstanding the voltage being measured.

Exercise extreme safety when~ testing high energy power circuits (AC line or mains, etc). Refer to the High Energy Circuit Safety Precautions found in paragraph 2.6 (Basic Measurements).

Do not exceed the instrument's section.

ONE-SH(TT OPERATION
In the oneshot trigger mode, each reading consists of multiple conversions to fill the Running Average User Filter (30 canvenions), or the Running Average Internal Filter (5%d only, varies by ranges and function-see manual). For this reason, trigger-to-reading time could be several seconds, depending on iiltering. When filters are off (`TO" command wer the bus can be SAvEd), readings are made up of only one conversion.

(Tffes shown are to coIIeCt range and do not include conversion times for final reading.)

Range changes will restart at channel 1. In MANUAL, at least one reading must be taken on channel 1 before attempting to display ratio on channels Z-8.

When using the scanner with ACV or ACA, a DELAY time must be programmed to accomcdate AC converter settling time (typically >lsec). See Model 199 sp&fications.

*The scanner operates with the set of insirument parameters programmed prior to stat of scanning. Chanpinp any of these parameters, range function, filter, etc., during scanning will restart the scanner at than~11. Use autorange if range changes are required while scanning.

General Information
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The Keithley Model 199 System DhJM Scanner is a five function autoranging digital multimeter. At 5% digit resolution, the LED display can display &02,999 counts. The range of this analog-to-digital (A/D) converter is greater than the normal *199,999-count A/D converter used in many 5% digit DMMs. The built-in IEEE-488 titerface makes the instrument fully programmable over the LEEE-488 bus. The Model 199 can make the foBowing basic measurements: 1. DC voltage measurements from l&V to 3OOV. 2. Resistance measurements from II& to 3OOMR. 3. TRMS AC voltage measurements from 1pV to 309V. 4. DC current measurements from lOOnA to 3A. 5. I'RMS AC current measurements from lOOnA to 3A.

Basic DMM Operation
2.1 INTRODUCTION
Operation of the Model I.99 can be divided into two general categories: front panel operation and IEEE-188 bus op~ation. This section contains information necessa?y to use the instrument from the front panel. These functions can also be programmed over the IEEE-488 bus, as described in Section 3. CAUTION Be sure that the power line voltage agrees with the indicated range on the rear panel of the instrument. Failure to observe this precaution may result in instrument damage.

2.2.2 Power Up Sequence
The instrument can be turned on by pressing in the front panel POWER switch. The switch will be at the i&w most position when the instrument is turned on. Upon power up, the instrument wiIl do a number of tests on itself. Tests are performed on memory (ROM, RAM and E'PROM). If RAM or ROM fails, the inshument will lock up. If E*PROM FAILS,the message "UNCAL" will be displayed. See paragraph 6.7.2 for a complete description of the power up self test and recommendations to resolve failures.~

2.2 POWER UP PROCEDURE

2.2.1 Line Power
Use the following procedure to connect the Model 199 to line power and power up the instrument. 1. Check that the instrument is set to correspond to the available lie power. When the instrument leaves the factory, the externally selected line voltage is marked on the rear panel. Ranges are 105WZ5V or 21OV-25OV 50/6OHz AC (9GllOV, 180~220V with optional transformer). If the line voltage setting of the instrutitint needs to be changed, set switch as required. If the line frequency setting of the instrument needs to be checked and/or changed, utilize fro
