This function can be used to return most of the instrument settings including Voltage, Current,
Range, OVP, OCP, Output On/Off, Current Meter Averaging, Multi-On/Off Action and System
Preferences back to the factory default values as listed in section 18. Note that it is possible
that a request to set factory defaults will fail to complete if it invokes certain range changes, see
section 7.6 for more information.
The Store memories for both individual outputs and All Outputs are unaffected. To clear each
bank of Stores it is necessary to use the function Stores > Delete > Del All.
LCD contrast setting and remote interface settings (MX180TP only) are also unaffected.
