Measurement categories
To ensure safe operation of measurement instruments, IEC 61010 establishes safety standards for various electrical environments, categorized as CAT II to CAT IV, and called measurement categories.
CAT II : Primary electrical circuits in equipment connected to an AC
electrical outlet by a power cord (portable tools, household applianceas, etc.) CAT II covers directly measuring electrical outlet receptacles.
CAT III : Primary electrical circuits of heavy equipment (fixed
installations) connected directly to the distribution panel, and feeders from the distribution panel to outlets.
CAT IV : The circuit from the service drop to the service entrance, and to
the power meter and primary overcurrent protection device (distribution panel).
Using a measurement instrument in an environment designated with a higher-numbered category than that for which the instrument is rated could result in a severe accident, and must be carefully avoided.
We define measurement tolerances in terms of f.s. (full scale), rdg. (reading) and dgt. (digit) values, with the following meanings:
f.s. (maximum display value or scale length)
The maximum displayable value or the full length of the scale. This is usually the maximum value of the currently selected range.
rdg. (reading or displayed value)
The value currently being measured and indicated on the measuring instrument.
dgt. (resolution)
The smallest displayable unit on a digital measuring instrument, i.e., the input value that causes the digital display to show a "1".

Preliminary Checks
Before using the instrument the first time, verify that it operates normally to ensure that the no damage occurred during storage or shipping. If you find any damage, contact your dealer or Hioki representative. Before using the instrument, make sure that the insulation on the measurement leads is undamaged and that no bare conductors are improperly exposed. Using the instrument in such conditions could cause an electric shock, so contact your dealer or Hioki representative for replacements.
DANGE
WARNIN
CAUTIO
Be sure to ensure the floating state for a battery circuit (measured object) with voltage exceeding 30 Vrms, 42.4 Vpeak, or 60 VDC. Connecting the instrument to a circuit exceeding 30 Vrms, 42.4 Vpeak, or 60 VDC may lead to electric shock.
Connect SOURCE and SENSE (banana plug) in the proper manner. For the correct procedure, refer to Section 3.3 "Connecting the Measurement Leads ".
To avoid injury or damage to the instrument, do not attempt to measure AC voltage, or DC voltage exceeding 60 V.
Do not allow the instrument to get wet, and do not take measurements with wet hands. This may cause an electric shock.
Do not use the instrument where it may be exposed to corrosive or combustible gases. The instrument may be damaged or cause an explosion.
To avoid electric shock when measuring live lines, wear appropriate protective gear, such as insulated rubber gloves, boots and a safety helmet.
Do not store or use the instrument where it could be exposed to direct
sunlight, high temperature or humidity, or condensation. Under such conditions, the instrument may be damaged and insulation may deteriorate so that it no longer meets specifications.
This instrument is designed for use indoors. It can be operated at
temperatures between 0 and 40without degrading safety.
Do not input voltage and current between SOURCE-Hi and SENSE-Hi or
between SOURCE-Lo and SENSE-Lo.
Various connectors are provided on the outer panel of the instrument.
Make sure the instrument is turned off before connecting cables to these connectors. To prevent short-circuits, make sure connections are made correctly.
The GND terminals on the external control terminal, external output
terminal, RS-232C interface, GP-IB interface, and printer interface are grounded. This means that the devices connected to the GND terminals are grounded. Take care in handling them.

.2 Features
(1) AC four-terminal method for accurate measurement of resistance
Thanks to the AC four-terminal method, the 3560 is capable of accurate resistance measurements unaffected by the resistance of leads or by contact resistance generated between the lead and the measured object.
(2) Measurement of resistance at low power
The 3560 employs a low-power measurement of resistance system that conforms to global standards. This permits accurate measurement of contact resistance without serious damage to the oxide film on the contact surface.
(3) High-speed measurement and high-speed pass/fail judgment
The 3560 is capable of performing both measurement and pass/fail judgment at high speeds, allowing reduced line tact time. Up to thirty comparators can be set and one 3560 conducts pass/fail judgment performed for various measured objects.
(4) Battery measurement
Since the 3560 simultaneously measures resistance and DC voltage, it is capable of making a combined pass/fail judgment possible for internal resistance and open-circuit voltage.
(5) Interface
The 3560 comes with an RS-232C interface, external output terminal, and external control terminal as standard features, allowing data communications with a computer. The instrument also supports optional GP-IB and printer interfaces.
(6) Lead options
The 3560 supports options such as clip-type, pin-type, and four-terminal leads, allowing the user to select the most suitable lead for the shape of the particular object being measured.
(7) Excellent visibility and ergonomics
The fluorescent character display allows measurements to be read in poorly-lit areas, and low switch hierarchy allows for easy and intuitive operation.

Preparing for Measureme
.1 Mounting the Interface
WARNIN
To avoid electric shock accident, before removing or replacing an interface, confirm that the instrument is turned off and that the power cord is disconnected. The mounting screws must be firmly tightened or the interface may not perform to specifications, or may even fail.
To avoid the danger of electric shock, never operate the instrumen with an interface removed. To use the instrument after removing an interface, install a blank panel over the opening of the removed module.

CAUTIO
NOTE
────────────────────────────────────────────────────
To avoid damage to the instrument, do not short-circuit the output terminal or connector and do not input voltage to the output terminal or connector. When the interface is removed, place a blank panel over the opening. This keeps the instrument’s internal temperature uniform and within specifications.
The 9588 GP-IB INTERFACE or 9589 PRINTER INTERFACE can be mounted to the instrument.
An expansion slot for an interface is covered by a blank panel on the rear panel of the instrument. To mount an interface, remove this panel in the following manner:
1. Remove the blank panel. (Retain the set bolts.)
2. Insert the interface into the guide rails.
3. Firmly press the interface into the slot until fully inserted, and secure with the set bolts from Step 1.
Mount only a 9588 or 9589 interface.The resistance or voltage can be measured even if the interfaces is not
mounted.
The printer and GP-IB interfaces cannot be used simultaneously. Mount
either interface.

.3.4 Lead Line Break Check (Imperfect Contact Check)
SOURCE line break check
The 3560 measures resistance using the AC constant-current system. With this method, an AC constant current is unlikely to be supplied due to a broken SOURCE line or the resistance of the measurement object. Since using normal measurement procedures in such circumstance will produce incorrect resistance measurements, the system checks the SOURCE line for breaks. If a break is detected, "−−−−− "appears in the measured value display field, and the associated signal is output to the external output terminal. For external output terminal details, see Section 6.3.2 "External Output Terminal."
NOTE
The SOURCE line break check cannot be disabled.
SENSE line break check
The SENSE line is examined for breaks. If a break is detected, "−−−−−" appears in the measured value display zone, and the associated signal is output to the external output terminal. For external output terminal details, see Section 6.3.2 "External Output Terminal." The SENSE line break check may be disabled or enabled.

.3.5 Voltage Limiter
The voltage limiter may be set. If set, the voltage applied to the measured object is limited to a maximum of 20 mVpeak in order to protect the oxide film on the contact surface of the object.
NOTE
1. Press the lit on the display.
2. Press the "LIMIT OFF" appears from the display, and the limiter is turned off.
Limiter: ON
Limiter: OFF
The voltage limiter is enabled before shipment. Since measurements may
be unsuccessful if the lead is modified or extended with the voltage limiter enabled, shorten the measurement lead to reduce resistance or disable the voltage limiter.
For more information on the voltage limiter, see Section 10.6 "IEC 512-2,
JIS C 5402 and JIS C 5441."
To shut off the DC current, the SOURCE and SENSE terminals of the
instrument are equipped with capacitors. The voltage limiter will not work when these capacitors are charged. If you measure an element having electromotive force, such as a battery, then measure its contact resistance, you must first short-circuit the measurement lead once to neutralize the charge in the capacitors.
The open-circuit terminal voltage between SENSE-Hi and SOURCE-Hi
does not guarantee 20 mV. When using 9453 FOUR TERMINAL LEAD, avoid crossing the red and black leads.

NOTE
To make a zero adjustment of the 9453, turn off SENSE CHECK.
Following the adjustment, SENSE CHECK may be turned on.
The zero-adjust can be used for up to 2400 counts in measuring
resistance (240 counts for FAST sampling rate) and up to 3400 counts in measuring voltage. If an attempt is made to use the zero-adjust beyond these limits, "ERR-1" appears in the display to prevent further zero­adjust operations. Perform a zero-adjust whenever you change sampling rates.
The voltage is input to the 3560 for measurement. If the voltage input is
3400 counts or more at zero adjustment, "ERR-1" appears and the zero adjustment is invalidated even in the resistance measurement mode.
The value determined upon zero clearing is a reference for the possible
zero adjustment range.
Whenever the sampling rate is changed, a zero adjustment should be
made.
For 9455 PIN TYPE LEAD, first conduct the zero-adjust for 9287-10
CLIP TYPE LEAD, then replace the 9287-10 leads with 9455 PIN TYPE LEAD and conduct a zero-adjust for the 9455 leads.
Zero adjustment can also be performed by the 9461 when the 9454 ZERO
ADJUSTMENT BOARD is used.
When the zero adjustment is made in the auto range mode, it is applied
to the entire range.
When the system is put in the HOLD mode while the zero adjustment is
being made in the auto range mode, "ERR-1" appears. In this case, cancel the hold status and execute the zero adjust again.
When the system is in HOLD mode, the currently displayed value is zero-

Be sure to ensure the floating state for a battery circuit (measured
object) with voltage exceeding 30 Vrms, 42.4 Vpeak, or 60 VDC. Connecting the instrument to a circuit exceeding 30 Vrms, 42.4 Vpeak, or 60 VDC may lead to electric shock.
To avoid electrical shock, be careful to avoid shorting live lines
with the measurement leads.
Do not measure the voltage of the voltage generator, as doing so
will cause an AC voltage to be applied to the output terminal of the voltage generator, resulting in a hazard.
When a high-voltage battery has been measured and a low-voltage
battery is to be measured, short-circuit the measurement lead to discharge the DC component cutoff capacitor of the 3560. Otherwise, an overvoltage will be applied to the battery.
Connect the lead to the measured object and read the measured value.

In case of abnormal measurements (NG)
When the 3560 monitors the measurement process and judges the measurement to be incorrect, it outputs an abnormal measurements (NG) signal, displaying "−−−−− " on the fluorescent character display.
Abnormal measurements include the following events:
Broken SOURCE lineThe SOURCE is not connected to the measured object.The lead resistance of the SOURCE line and the contact resistance and
resistance of the measured object and reactance deviate from the valid ranges for each parameter. For valid ranges, refer to the following table.
An abnormal measurement signal is output when any of the following events occurs. For allowable ranges, see the table below.
The SENSE line break check is turned on, and a break has occurred in
the SENSE line.
The SENSE line break check is turned on, but the SENSE line is not
connected to the measured object.
If the induced voltage is greater than the internal signal processing
level, it is generated between the SOURCE and SENSE lines. Extending the measurement lead increases induced voltage. If the coil capacitor has large reactance, the induced voltage may exceed the internal signal processing level.

CAUTIO
To prevent damage to the instrument, avoid applying voltage or current
exceeding the rated value to the external output terminal. Similarly, avoid supplying voltage or current exceeding permissible values to the externa control terminal. (Refer to the section listing the instrument’s electrical properties.)
In order to avoid electric shock, turn off the power to all devices before
plugging in or unplugging any of the interface connectors. Connect cables securely to prevent disconnection during measurement and inappropriate contact with conductive materials, including the human body.
When using a relay, connect a counter-electromotive force-absorbing diode.Avoid short-circuiting the external output and control terminals. Removing
too much of the cable insulation may lead to short-circuits.
1. Push down the button with an appropriate tool, such as a flathead screwdriver.
2. With the button pushed down, insert the cables into the connection holes.
3. Release the button to secure the cables. Remove the cables using the same procedure.

When the result is "1," the comparator result associated with the signal is valid.
End of measurement (EOC)
A change from "0" to "1" in this signal indicates that current measurement is complete, and that the comparator result output is determined.
Abnormal measurements (NG)
A value of "1" indicates an abnormal measurement. This signal is set to "1" even when abnormal measurements are detected in hold mode. Abnormal measurement results indicate a broken lead, incorrect contact, or defective internal analog circuits. For more information on abnormal measurements, see Section 4.5 "Starting Measurement."

NOTE
When loading measurement result using TRIG signal, be sure to monitor
EOC signal status and load measurement result after EOC signal is output. When loading measurement result without monitoring EOC signal, load data after TRIG signal is input and some time has passed.
Comparator resultHi,IN,Lo,PASS,FAILis not output in the following
situations.
When comparator is set to MANU and MANU signal is not input.When NG (measurement error) occurs. (See 4.5 Starting Measurement)
When connecting 9203 printer to 3560 and print measurement value
synchronized with measurement, use 9425 CONNECTION CABLE only for connection.
When printing measurement value, input 3560 PRINT signal at timing
after measurement is complete.
When measurement value is printed using 9203 PRINT signal or Interval
print function, use caution because measurement and printing may not synchronize and printing a previous measurement value may occur.
Timing chart shows standard examples. It may very depending on users’
application. When building line, etc, adjust waiting time and signal pulse width if operation error occurs or measurement value fluctuates.
When building fastest line possible, first set parameter such as waiting
time long and shorten each parameter as normal operation is confirmed.
When line settings are proper and operation errors still occur, it may be
the result of noise in the testing environment. Try the following solutions.
Install filter in the power supply 3560 and control equipment.Use other power source for 3560 and control equipment. Isolate with
transformer, etc.
Separate measurement leads, control signal and power supply line.Shorten control signal and measurement lead’s wire length.Place control signal and measurement lead away from noise source
such as control equipment.
Do not connect signal wire leads, etc to the unused terminal board.When 3560 control equipment and other equipment are connected with
control wires, separate control signal of other equipment and 3560 control signal.

Hard flow
Hard flow sets flow control (RTS/CTS) when data is transferred through the RS-232C interface. With hard flow enabled, data flow is controlled by the data transmission request signal (RTS) and transmission permit signal (CTS) between the 3560 and computer. RTS: A PC outputs this signal to indicate readiness to receive data from a
peripheral device.
CTS: A peripheral device outputs this signal to indicate readiness to
receive data from the PC. For information on setting flow control, refer to the operating manual for your PC. Make sure settings for the 3560 and the PC match.

.2.2 Communication Methods by the RS-232C
In order to control the 3560 by the RS-232C, there are several kinds of messages. Of these, program messages are those received by the 3560 from the computer, while response messages are those sent from the 3560 to the computer.

.2.3 Program Messages
Program messages are command messages or query messages.
(1) Command messages
Command messages are orders for controls of the 3560, such as for making measurement condition settings or for reset or the like.
Example :LIM ON
(2) Query messages
Query messages are order for responses relating to results of measurement, or the state of 3560 settings. (A question mark"?"is suffixed at the end of the command.)
Example :CSET:BEEP?
.2.4 Message Format
The commands for the 3560 are as far as possible mnemonic. Furthermore, all commands have a long form, and an abbreviated short form.
(1) Program message
The program message is made up from header and data portions. Example :AUT ON
AUT: Header ON: Data
(ASCII codes or numerical characters. Messages containing no data also exist in the form of query messages.)
A command header can be abbreviated. The whole command form is referred to as the "long form" and the abbreviated from as the "short form." In this manual, the short form is written in upper case letters, and then this is continued in lower case letters so as to constitute the long form. Either of these forms will be accepted during operation, but intermediate forms will not be accepted. Further, during operation both lower case letters will be accepted without distinction.
(2) Response messages
It represents the response message for query messages from the 3560. Response messages generated by the 3560 are in long form and in upper case letters.
Example :CSET:BEEPER IN
NOTE
────────────────────────────────────────────────────
7.2 Operating Procedure (RS-232C)
If an error occurs when a query is received, no response message to the
query is sent.
When occurring in the message reference, the symbol " "(space) indicates
a space.
Page 69
57
7
────────────────────────────────────────────────────
.2.5 Headers
(1) Program message headers
The program message always requires a header. These are three types of header: simple headers, compound headers, and particular headers.
Simple header
1
2
3
A header consisting of a single word beginning with a letter. Example :AUTorange
Compound header
A header consisting of a sequence of words separated by colons.
Example :LOCK:KEY
Particular header
A header beginning with an asterisk (*) to indicate that it is a particular command. Example *CLS
(2) Response message
Headers in response message can be enabled or disabled by using the ":HEADer" command. Example :CSET:BEEP? (Queries the buzzer setting) Response: [If headers are ON] :CSET:BEEPER IN Response: [If headers are OFF] IN (Data only)

────────────────────────────────────────────────────
.2.6 Data Formats
The 3560 use character string data and decimal numeric data, and the type used varies according to the command in question.
(1) Character data
Character string data must always being with an alphabetic character, and the characters following can be either alphabetic characters or numerals. Although in character data either upper case letters or lower case letters are accepted, response messages output by the 3560 are always in upper case letters.
Example :LIMIT ON
(2) Decimal data
The numeric data values are all represented in decimal, in three formats identified as NR1, NR2 and NR3, and each of these can appear as either a signed number or an unsigned number. Unsigned numbers are taken as positive. Further, if the accuracy of a numerical value exceeds the limit which the 3560 can deal, it is rounded off. (5 and above is rounded up; 4 and below is rounded down)
NR1 format - integer data.
Example +3000, ‑50000, 210
Example +2.56, ‑30.45, 300.28
Example +3E‑2, ‑1.2E3 The term "NRf format" includes all these three formats. When the 3560 is receiving it accepts NRf format, but when it is sending response messages it utilizes whichever one of the formats NR1 to NR3 is indicated in the specified command. Example :VRAN 5 :VRAN 5.01 :VRAN 0.05E2
.2.7 Delimiters
The term "delimiter" is used to refer to the following two possibilities for separating data sequences. The response message delimiter has the following two format: CR + LF, CR, LF The output is CR + LF.
NR2 format - fixed point numbers.
NR3 format - floating point numbers.

────────────────────────────────────────────────────
.2.8 Separators
(1) Message unit separator
A semicolon (;) is used as a message unit separator when it is desired to set out several messages on a single line. When message are combined in this way, if a syntax error occurs, all subsequent messages up to the next delimiter will be ignored. Example :RRAN 3E‑2;:VRAN 50;:MEAS:BATT?
(2) Header separator
In a message which has a header and data, a apace (represented by " "(space) in the examples) is used as the header separator to separate the header from the data. Example :COMPARATOR 1
(3) Data separator
If a message has several data items, commas (,) are required as data separators for separating these data items from one another. Example :CSET:RPAR
data1,data2
.2.9 Abbreviation of Compound Commands
When several compound headers have a common head portion (for example, :CSET: following on from one another, this common portion (:CSET: in this example) can be omitted. This common portion is called "the current path", by analogy with the general concept of the current directly in the directly structure of UNIX or MSDOS, and until it is cleared the analysis of following commands is performed by deeming them to be preceded by the current path is shown in the following example:
Normal expression
:CSET:NUMBer;:CSET:RPARameter
Abbreviated expression
:CSET:NUMBer;RPARameter
The current path is cleared when the power is turned on, when a colon (:) appears at the start of a command, and when delimiter is detected.
Messages with particular headers can be executed without relation to the current path. Further, they have no effect upon the current path. While simple and complex command headers don’t require a colon ": " prefix, we recommend using the colon to avoid confusion with abbreviated expressions and to prevent 3560 malfunction.
), then, when and only when writing them directly
With the 3560, there are 3 possible current paths: ":CSET", ":LOCK", ":MEAS"

.2.10 Output Buffer
The 3560 have an output buffer of 128 bytes capacity. Response messages accumulate in the output buffer and all data are received and cleared. The output buffer is also cleared in the following four situations:
When the instrument is powered on. When the Query error is occurred. When the Device is cleared. When the I/F is Switched.
.2.11 Input Buffer
The 3560 have an input buffer of 128 bytes capacity. Switching the interface clears the current setting.
.2.12 Status Byte Registers
(1) Status byte register (STB)
The status byte register is an 8-bit register whose contents are output from the 3560 to the controller, when serial polling is being performed. If even only one bit in the status byte register has changed from 0 to 1 (provided that it is a bit which has been set in the service request enable register as a bit which can be used), then the MSS bit is set to 1. Simultaneously with this the SRQ bit is set to 1, and service request is generated.
