! S1 command
The S1 command is used to set up the measurement functions, ranges, and reading rates
for the primary display in the meter.
The S1 command is followed by three parameters
<f>, <r>, and <x> in order.
All characters for the
<f>, <r>, and <x> parameters must be in the upper case.
For detail information of using the S1 command, see Table 6-4 and Table 6-6.
Table 6-4. Descriptions for S1 Command
Syntax Description
In S1 command, <f>, <r>, and <x> parameters are used to set up the
primary display measurements:
<f> for specifying Measurement functions, <r> for specifying ranges,
and <x> for specifying reading rate.
<f> is a necessary parameter for specifying the measurement
functions. <f> parameter is defined by a numeric value from “0” to
“9” and character “A”.
<r> is an optional parameter for specifying measurement range. <r>
parameter is defined by a numeric value from “0” to “7”. If <r>
parameter is omitted (<x> parameter should be omitted, too.) The
meter will be set at auto-ranging.
<x> is an optional parameter for specifying a reading rate. It is defined
by a character “S”, “M”, or “F”, in which “S” is for slow rate, “M”
for medium rate, and “F” for fast rate
If <x> parameter is not specified, the meter will remain on its current
reading rate without change.
S1<f><r><x>
Table 6-6 shows all available S1 command parameters and available
combinations.
Example 1: “S104S” (<f>, <r> and <x> are all specified)
Set primary display of the meter to DCV 120V with manual range
and at slow reading rate.
Example 2: “S142” (<x> is omitted)
Set primary display to DCA 120mA with manual range, and the
reading rate will not be affected.
Example 3: “S17” (Both <r> and <x> are omitted)
Set primary display to frequency with auto ranging and the reading
rate will not be affected.
