:RANGe[:UPPer]?
Query ACI measurement range
:RANGe[:UPPer]? DEFault
Query *RST default range
:RANGe[:UPPer]? MINimum
Query lowest measurement range
:RANGe[:UPPer]? MAXimum
Query highest measurement range
This command is used to manually select the measurement range for the specifed measurement
function. The range is selected by specifying the expected reading as an absolute value. The
Model 2002 will then go to the most sensitive range that will accommodate that expected read-
ing. For example, if you expect a reading of approximately 100mA, simply let the parameter
(<n>) = 0.1 (or 100e-3) in order to select the 200mA range.
PRINT #1, "output 16; :curr:ac:rang 1; rang?"
' Select 2A ACI range
PRINT #1, "enter 16"
' Get response from 2002

:AUTO?
Query autorange (on or off)
These commands are used to control autoranging. With autoranging enabled, the instrument
automatically goes to the most sensitive range to perform the measurement (see paragraph 2.5.4
for details).
The ONCE parameter is analogous to a momentary toggle switch. When :RANGe:AUTO
ONCE is sent, auto range enables and the most sensitive range is selected for the input signal.
Auto range will then disable, but the selected measurement range is retained. Note that the
instrument must currently be on the specified function in order for ONCE to be effective. Using
ONCE while on any other function results in an error.
The autorange command (:RANGe:AUTO) is coupled to the command that manually selects
the measurement range (:RANGe <n>). When autorange is enabled, the parameter value for
:RANGe <n> changes to the automatically selected range value. Thus, when autorange is dis-
abled, the instrument remains at the automatically selected range. When a valid :RANGe <n>
command is sent, autoranging disables.
When using auto range, upper and lower range limits can be established to keep the instrument
from autoranging to ranges that are not going to be used. (see :AUTO: ULIMit and
:AUTO:LLIMit commands).
