Abstract:
Controlling a test instrument may include: determining a first value corresponding to power output by the test instrument; determining a second value based on the first value, where the second value corresponds to an amount of energy consumed by the test instrument; and placing at least part of the test instrument in a high-impedance state when the second value exceeds a threshold.
