CONFigure Subsystem
The CONFigure commands are the most concise way to configure measurements. Like the MEASure? queries, these
commands use default measurement configuration values. However, these commands do not automatically start
measurements, so you can modify measurement attributes before initiating the measurement.
Use INITiate or READ? to initiate measurements.

Default Settings for the CONFigure Command
The CONFigure commands select the function, range and resolution in one command. Specify <resolution> in the
measurement's units (V, A, Hz, Ω, and so on). All other parameters are set to their default values (below).
Measurement Parameter Default Setting
AC Input Filter (bandwidth) 20 Hz (medium filter)
Autozero OFF if resolution setting results in NPLC < 1
ON if resolution setting results in NPLC ≥ 1
Range AUTO (including voltage range for frequency and period measurements)
Samples per Trigger 1 sample
Trigger Count 1 trigger
Trigger Delay Automatic delay
Trigger Source Immediate
Trigger Slope NEGative
Math Functions Disabled. Other parameters are unchanged.
Per-function Null State Disabled
