Query:
:NPLCycles?
Query programmed NPLC value
Description:
The integration period (measurement speed) for the basic measurement functions (except
Frequency and Period) is set using the:NPLCycles command. NPLC(Number of Power Line Cycles)
expresses the integration period by basing it on the power line frequency. For example, for a PLC of
1, the integration period in seconds would be1/60 (for 60Hz line power) which is 16.67 msec.
:RANGe Commands
:[UPPer] <n>
Command syntax:
:VOLTage:AC:RANGe[:UPPer] <n>
Set measurement range for ACV
:VOLTage:DC:RANGe[:UPPer] <n>
Set measurement range for DCV
Command Parameter:
<n> = 0 to 757.5
Expected reading is AC volts (ACV)
0 to 1010
Expected reading is DC volts (DCV)
DEFault 757.5 (ACV)
1000 (DCV)
MINimum
0 (All functions)
MAXimum Same as DEFault
Query:
:RANGe[:UPPer]?
Query measurement range of the current function.
Description:
This command is used to manually select the measurement range for the specified measurement
function. The range is selected by specifying the expected reading as an absolute value. The
instrument will then go to the most sensitive range that will accommodate that expected reading. For
example, if you expect a reading of approximately 20mV, simply let the parameter (<n>) =0.02 (or
20e-3) in order to select the 200mV range.
:AUTO <b>
Command syntax:
:VOLTage:AC:RANGe:AUTO <b>
Set auto range for ACV
:VOLTage:DC:RANGe:AUTO <b>
Set auto range for DCV
Command parameter:
<b> = 1 or ON
Enable auto range
0 or OFF
Disable auto range
