MEASure Subsystem
The MEASure queries are the easiest way to program measurements because they always use default measurement
parameters. You set the function, range, and resolution in one command, but you cannot change other parameters
from their default values. The results are sent directly to the instrument's output buffer.
A MEASure query is functionally equivalent to sending CONFigure followed immediately by READ?. The
difference is that CONFigure commands allow you to change parameters between the CONFigure and the
READ?

Default Settings for MEASure?
With the MEASure? queries, you can select the function, range and resolution in one command. 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
