Description:
These commands are used to control auto ranging. With auto ranging enabled, the instrument
automatically goes into the most sensitive range (based on the input) to perform the measurement.
The auto range command (:RANGe:AUTO) is coupled to the command that manually selects the
measurement range (:RANGe <n>). When auto range is enabled, the parameter value
for :RANGe <n> changes to the automatically selected range value. There, when auto range is
disabled, the instrument remains at the automatically selected range. When a valid :RANGe <n>
command is sent, auto ranging disables.
Note: Autoranging is not available for some current AC and DC ranges.
REFerence Command
The REFerence command is a subset to current, voltage, resistance, frequency, and period
measurement commands, of which are part of the SENSe subsystem. The below lists out all the
command syntax for setting REFerence for different measurement functions.
