Details
This command makes a single impedance measurement.
Before calling measz, use the forcev command to set the DC bias level, the setfreq command to
set the AC drive frequency, and the setlevel command to set the AC drive voltage.
The parameter values for the measurement model are listed in the following table.
Measurement model parameter values
Impedance (Z) and phase (θ in degrees)
RjX Resistance and reactance
or
Parallel capacitance and conductance
Series capacitance and resistance
Parallel capacitance and dissipation factor
CsD Series capacitance and dissipation factor
or
Use the smeasz or smeaszRT command to measure and return the impedance readings for a
sweep.

rangei
This command selects an impedance measurement range.
Usage
int rangei(int instr_id, double range);
The instrument identification code of the 4210-CVU: CVU1
Impedance measure range (0, 1 µA, 30 µA, or 1 mA)
Details
Use this command to set the 4210-CVU to a current measure range for impedance measurements.
Setting range to 0 selects auto range. The CVU automatically goes to the most sensitive (optimum)
range to make the measurement. This is the same as calling the setauto command.
The other range parameter values select a fixed measure range. The CVU remains on the fixed
range until auto range is enabled or the CVU is reset (devint called).
