MEASure:CURRent:AC? {< range >|MIN|MAX|DEF},{< resolution >|MIN|MAX|DEF}
Preset and make an ac current measurement with the specified range
and resolution. The reading is sent to the output buffer. For ac
measurements, resolution is actually fixed at 6
1
⁄
2
digits. The resolution
parameter only affects the front-panel display.
MEASure:RESistance? {< range >|MIN|MAX|DEF},{< resolution >|MIN|MAX|DEF}
Preset and make a 2-wire ohms measurement with the specified range
and resolution. The reading is sent to the output buffer.
MEASure:FRESistance? {< range >|MIN|MAX|DEF},{< resolution >|MIN|MAX|DEF}
Preset and make a 4-wire ohms measurement with the specified range
and resolution. The reading is sent to the output buffer.
MEASure:FREQuency? {<
range
>|MIN|MAX|DEF},{<
resolution
>|MIN|MAX|DEF}
Preset and make a frequency measurement with the specified range and
resolution. The reading is sent to the output buffer. For frequency
measurements, the multimeter uses one “range” for all inputs between
3 Hz and 300 kHz. With no input signal applied, frequency measurements
return “0”.
MEASure:PERiod? {< range >|MIN|MAX|DEF},{< resolution >|MIN|MAX|DEF}
Preset and make a period measurement with the specified range and
resolution. The reading is sent to the output buffer. For period
measurements, the multimeter uses one “range” for all inputs between
0.33 seconds and 3.3
µ
sec. With no input signal applied, period
measurements return “0”.
MEASure:CONTinuity?
Preset and make a continuity measurement. The reading is sent to the
output buffer. The range and resolution are fixed for continuity tests
(1 k
Ω
range and 5
1
⁄
2
digits).
MEASure:DIODe?
Preset and make a diode measurement. The reading is sent to the
output buffer. The range and resolution are fixed for diode tests
(1 Vdc range with 1 mA current source output and 5
1
⁄
2
digits).
