Setting Parameters in the MultiClamp 700B Commander
Many parameter fields in the MultiClamp 700B Commander can be set in three
different ways. To demonstrate this, press the V-Clamp 1 tab and try the following.
1. Glider
control
•
Position the cursor over the parameter field to the right of Holding,
noting that the cursor changes to a vertical double-headed arrow
(
). Hold down the left mouse button and drag the mouse up and
down; the holding potential changes in 1 mV steps.
•
Press the Shift key while dragging the mouse; the holding potential
changes in 5 mV steps.
•
Press the Ctrl key while dragging the mouse; the holding potential
changes in 20 mV steps.
•
Position the cursor over the button with the black dot (dual control) to
the right of Cp Fast, noting that the cursor changes to crossed double-
headed arrows (
). Holding down the left mouse button and dragging
the mouse vertically changes the capacitance parameter (pF), while
dragging horizontally changes the time constant parameter (
τ
s
).
Simultaneously pressing the Shift or Ctrl key respectively magnifies
the effect (however, in a non-linear manner for this particular control).
2. Entering text directly
•
Position the cursor over the parameter field to the right of Holding and
double click. Type a number, and then press Enter.
