Disabling Autoranging
VOLT:RANG:AUTO OFF
!Disable autorange.
VOLTage:RANGe:AUTO?
[SENSe:]VOLTage:RANGe:AUTO?
returns a number to show whether the
autorange mode is enabled or disabled: "
1
" =
ON
, "
0
" =
OFF
. The value is sent to
the output buffer.

Comments
•
MINimum
selects the best resolution (the smallest value from Table 5-1) for the
selected range.
MAXimum
selects the worst resolution (the largest value from
Table 5-1) for the selected range.
•
You must select a range using
VOLTage:RANGe
before specifying resolution.
Also, only specify a resolution when making measurements on a fixed range.
Otherwise, the resolution will change to correspond with the range selected during
autoranging.
•
If autoranging is required, set the resolution using the
MIN
or
MAX
parameters or
select a specific aperture time using
VOLT:APERture
.
•
To achieve the specified resolution, the multimeter will increase the integration
time as needed. This command overrides the results of previously executed
VOLTage:APERture
and
VOLTage:NPLC
commands (the last command executed
has priority).
