R-set

Configure the instrument for constant resistance mode.

Recall

Recall instrument state from non-volatile memory.

Remote sensing

Allows the instrument to measure the load power properly in case of large
currents by sensing the voltage at the source, rather than at the
instrument's terminals. This removes the effect of the resistance of long
leads.

S-Tran

Set parameters (A, B, and transition times) for transient mode.

Shift

Shift key, which allows access to the functions written beneath the
number keys.

Short

Toggles between normal operation and a low resistance short.

Store

Allows the user to save the instrument state in non-volatile memory.

Test file

A sequence of different test modes used for automated testing.

Tran

Set to transient condition.

Transient condition See Condition.

Trigger

The key that causes an immediate trigger.

V-set

Configure the instrument for constant voltage mode.

VFD

Vacuum fluorescent display, the technology used for the instrument's
display.
