Measure in a Specifying Range and Function (Ω, LPΩ)
Syntax
Query
:MEASure:LPResistance? <Expected measurement value>
<Expected measurement value> = 0 to 2E+3
:MEASure:RESistance? <Expected measurement value>
<Expected measurement value> = 0 to 110E+6
Description
If an expected measurement value is provided, the instrument selects the most
suitable range for measuring. If the data value is omitted, auto-ranging is selected.
The MEASURE command operates as follows:
1. Triggering is set to disable continuous measurement.
2. Internal triggering is enabled.
3. The specified function is selected.
4. The specified range is selected.
5. One trigger executes.
6. The measured value is read.
The MEASURE command causes the following commands to execute internally.
:FUNC <Function>
<Function>
:RANG <Expected measurement value>
(If an <Expected measurement value> is not present,
<Function>
:RANG:AUTO ON)
:INIT:CONT OFF
:TRIG:SOUR IMM
:READ?

Note
When measuring inductive objects such as transformers or coils, measurement
data may be returned before the value has stabilized with auto-ranging. In such
cases, specify the measurement range or use the trigger delay function.
