Details
When autozero is disabled, the reference and internal temperature measurements are not performed.
This increases the measurement speed. However, the reference and temperature reference points
will eventually drift, resulting in inaccurate readings of the input signal. For details, refer to
(on page 4-5).
Example
:SYST:AZER OFF
Disables autozero to increase measurement speed.
