4-6 Range, Digits, Rate, Bandwidth, and Filter Model 2700 Multimeter/Switch System User’s Manual
Scanning
When a simple scan is configured, the present digits setting will apply to all channels in
the scan. When an advanced scan is configured, each channel can have its own unique
digits setting. Details to configure and run a scan are provided in
Section 7.
For remote programming, the <clist> parameter is used to configure channels for a scan.

Digits commands
The commands to control display resolution (digits) are listed in Table 4-3. Additional
information on these commands follow the table.
NOTE Query commands are not included in Table 4-3. All commands for the SENSe
subsystem are provided in Table 15-5.

Digits commands
Commands* Description Default
[SENSe[1]] Optional root command.
:VOLTage[:DC]:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for DCV; <n> = 4 to 7. 7
:VOLTage:AC:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for ACV; <n> = 4 to 7. 6
:CURRent[:DC]:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for DC1; <n> = 4 to 7. 7
:CURRent:AC:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for ACI; <n> = 4 to 7. 6
:RESistance:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for Ω2; <n> = 4 to 7. 7
:FRESistance:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for Ω4; <n> = 4 to 7. 7
:TEMPerature:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for TEMP; <n> = 4 to 7. 6
:FREQuency:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for FREQ; <n> = 4 to 7. 7
:PERiod:DIGits <n> [, <clist>] Set # of digits for PERIOD; <n> = 4 to 7. 7
Channel list parameter:
<clist> = (@SCH)
where: S = Mainframe slot number (1 or 2)
CH = Switching module channel number (must be 2 digits)
Examples: (@101) = Slot 1, Channel 1
(@101, 203) = Slot 1, Channel 1 and Slot 2, Channel 3
(@101:110) = Slot 1, Channels 1 through 10
*The <clist> parameter is used to configure one or more channels for a scan. Each channel in the <clist> must be set to the function
specified by the digits command. If not, a conflict error (-221) will occur. For example, VOLTage:AC:DIGits 4.5, (@101) is only
valid if scan channel 101 is set for the ACV function.
