MODE2?
Returns the state of the secondary display, including the mode, range and
whether the range is locked (manual) or autoranging.
The syntax of the response is:
<ASCII data>,<ASCII data>,<ASCII data>,<RMT>
The response includes three ASCII data fields.
The first field contains the secondary display Mode which includes:
VDC, VAC, IDC, IAC, FREQ.
The second field contains the range e.g. 1000mV.
The third and final field contains the range selection state either ‘MAN’ for
manual range, or ‘AUTO’ for autoranging. Manual range selection is only
available when selecting the 10A range.
Each of the ASCII fields is separated by a comma.
FILTON
Enables the 50/60Hz hardware filter. This filter only affects the Vdc and
Ohms measurement modes.
FILTOFF
Disables the 50/60Hz hardware filter. This filter only affects the Vdc and
Ohms measurement modes.
SPEED
<CPD>
Sets the standard sampling speed of the instrument to either 4SPS or
20SPS.
The following
<CPD>
can be used to set the sampling speed:
<SLOW> sets the sampling speed to 4SPS.
<FAST> sets the sampling speed to 20SPS.
RTD
<CPD>
Sets the RTD temperature measurement connection to either 2 wire or 4
wire. The following
<CPD>
can be used to set the connection:
<2W> sets the measurement connection to 2 wire.
<4W> sets the measurement connection to 4 wire.

Main Display Commands
VDC
<CPD>
Sets the main display to dc Volts and optionally sets the range; if no range is
specified the display defaults to autorange.
The following
<CPD>
can be used to set the range:
<100MV>,<1000MV>,<10V>,<100V>,<1000V>
VAC
<CPD>
Sets the main display to ac Volts and optionally sets the range; if no range
is specified the display defaults to autorange.
The following
<CPD>
can be used to set the range:
<100MV>,<1000MV>,<10V>,<100V>,<750V>
VACDC
<CPD>
Sets the main display to ac+dc Volts and optionally sets the range; if no
range is specified the display defaults to autorange.
The following
<CPD>
can be used to set the range:
<100MV>,<1000MV>,<10V>,<100V>,<750V>
IDC
<CPD>
Sets the main display to dc Amps and optionally sets the range; if no range
is specified the display defaults to mA autorange.
The following
<CPD>
can be used to set the range:
<1MA>,<100MA>,<1000MA>,<10A>
