data
<data1>: NRf numerical data
An expected measurement value is entered. The unit is set to an optimum range capable of
measuring the given numerical data. (In the case of a frequency measurement function, the
attenuator range is specified.) [ data1] can be omitted. If this input is omitted, Auto Range will be
set up.
<data2>: NR3 numerical data
Function
The MEASURE command functions as follows:
Places the trigger system in a one-shot trigger mode. (Except when measuring continuity.)
Selects the internal trigger source.
Shifts to the specified function.
Shifts to the specified range.
Specifically, the MEASURE command executes the following command internally:
:FUNC <Function>
<Function>:RANG data
In the absence of (data1):<Function>:RANG:AUTO 1
:INIT:CONT 0
:TRIG:SOUR IMM
:READ?
Note
In an AC voltage measurement or AC current measurement in Auto Range, the unit may sometimes
return measurement data before the values stabilize. In this case, perform the measurement with a
specified range, or use the Trigger Delay function.
