The Wayne Kerr 3260B is a Precision Magnetics Analyzer that allows for the 2-terminal and 4-terminal (Kelvin) measurement of inductors and transformers. It also offers DC resistance measurement capabilities. The frequency range for the device spans 20Hz to 3MHz, and the drive level can be adjusted between 1mV and 10V rms. The analyzer supports ALC to maintain drive level at the component. In addition, the 3260B has a DC bias current adjustable between 1mA and 1A and provides the option to use external 3265B DC Bias Units to achieve up to 125A DC bias current.

Advanced Operation

3) To return to the SEQUENCE EDIT MODE press the Edit soft key.

5.10.1.3 Creating a New Program

Figure 5-29 SEQUENCE EDIT MODE:New Program

1) Display the SEQUENCE FILE screen. See section 5.10.1.1 Sequence File Screen.

2) Select the New soft key.

3) Type a unique program number between 1 and 65535, followed by the keypad Enter key.

A single step test program will be created assigned the number entered.

5.10.1.4 Adding a Program Label

Figure 5-30 SEQUENCE EDIT MODE:Program Label

Advanced Operation 5–27

Any test program may have a label assigned with up to 10 characters.

1) Display the SEQUENCE FILE screen. See section 5.10.1.1 Sequence File Screen.

2) Use the and navigation keys to scroll through the program list and highlight the program to be labelled.

3) Select the Label soft key.

4) Use the navigation keys to select each label character followed by the keypad Enter key for confirmation. To cancel the last character entered use the Delete soft key.

5) To store the label with the program select the Ok softkey.

5.10.1.5 Saving an Existing Program

It is a good idea to regularly save a program during editing.

1) Display the SEQUENCE FILE screen. See section 5.10.1.1 Sequence File Screen.

2) Select the Save softkey.

3) To overwrite the loaded test file press the Enter key on the keypad. Select the Yes softkey when prompted to confirm an existing file overwrite or No to abort.

5.10.1.6 Copying an Existing Program

1) Display the SEQUENCE FILE screen. See section 5.10.1.1 Sequence File Screen.

2) Use the and navigation keys to scroll through the list and press the Load soft key when the desired program is highlighted.

3) Select the Save softkey.

4) Enter a unique program number in the Save As field at the bottom of the screen and confirm the program number by pressing the Enter key. A label may be added to the program number. See section Adding a Test Program Label.

5.10.1.7 Deleting a Program

1) Display the SEQUENCE FILE screen. See section 5.10.1.1 Sequence File Screen.

2) Use the and navigation keys to scroll through the program list and highlight the program to be deleted.

3) Select the Delete softkey.

4) Program deletion is confirmed by pressing the Yes softkey. Abort the deletion process by pressing the No softkey.
