Command Syntax
[SENSe:]RESistance:RANGe <expected value>
Command Parameters
<expected value> = 0 Ω through 20 MΩ | DEF | MIN | MAX
*RST Value
Autoranging
Query Syntax
[SENSe:]RESistance:RANGe? [<MIN | MAX>]
Query Parameters
<MIN> = Causes the
query to report the minimum value (0 Ω)
<MAX>
= Causes the query to report the maximum value (20 MΩ)
Query Response
0 Ω through 20 MΩ
Description
This command selects the range for resistance measurements. To select a standard
range, select the
expected value
as the input signal's maximum expected resistance. The
multimeter then automatically selects the correct range. Also, MINimum (0 Ω) or
MAXimum (20 MΩ) may be specified.
The Resistance Range command overrides the range setting from a previous
CONFigure command specifying the resistance range. With the new range, a new
resolution is also selected based on the aperture time set by CONFigure. Specifying a
fixed range also overrides and disables the autorange mode.
