selects the DC current function and allows you to

specify the measurement range and resolution.

Parameters

Comments

•

To select a standard measurement range, specify

range

as the input signal's

maximum expected current. The multimeter then selects the correct range that
will accept the input.

•

The

AUTO

option for the

range

parameter enables autorange. The

DEF

option

for the

resolution

parameter defaults the integration time to 10 PLC.

•

The

DEFault

option for the

range

parameter will also enable autorange.

The

DEF

option for the

resolution

parameter defaults the integration time to

10 PLC.

•

The

MIN

and

MAX

parameters select the minimum or maximum values for

range

and

resolution

For

range

MIN

= 10mA;

MAX

= 3A

For

resolution

MIN

selects the best resolution (the smallest value) for the

selected range.

MAX

selects the worst resolution (the largest value) for the

selected range.

•

To select autorange, specify

DEF

for

range

or do not specify a value for the

range and resolution parameters. In the autorange mode, the multimeter
samples the input signal before each measurement and selects the appropriate
range.

•

To specify a

MIN

MAX

resolution while autoranging, you must specify the

AUTO

DEFault

parameter for range as

MEAS:CURR:DC? AUTO

MEAS:CURR:DC? DEF

(you cannot omit the

range

parameter). This prevents

the

MIN

MAX

resolution from being interpreted as a range setting and the

resulting command becomes

MEAS:CURR:DC? DEF,MIN

MEAS:CURR:DC? DEF,MAX

(or use

AUTO

in place of

DEF

•
