CALCulate:SCALe:UNIT "<string>" [, (@<ch_list>)]
CALCulate:SCALe:UNIT? [, (@<ch_list>)]
To specify the custom unit up to three characters (for example: RPM, PSI, or °C) for scaled measurements.
Parameter Typical return
<string>
Quoted string of up to three characters.
"RPM"
Sets scaling with a gain of 100 and an offset of 5, and display "PSI" with measurements on the front panel.
CALC:SCAL:FUNC SCAL
CALC:SCAL:GAIN 100
CALC:SCAL:OFFS 5
CALC:SCAL:UNIT "PSI"
CALC:SCAL:UNIT:STAT ON
CALC:SCAL:STAT ON
Typical response: "PSI"
– You can use letters (A-Z), numbers (0-9), an underscore ( _ ), or the "#" character which displays a degree symbol
( ° ) on the front panel (displayed as a blank space in an output string from the remote interface).
– The first character must be a letter or the "#" character (the "#" character is allowed only as the leftmost char-
acter in the label). The remaining two characters can be letters, numbers, or an underscore.
–
Single quotes (' ') and double quotes (" ") are both acceptable in the <string> format.
– Readings can be acquired during a scan using the multiplexer. For scanning measurements using the multiplexer
modules, an error is generated if the internal DMM is disabled (see INSTrument:DMM command).
– If you set the measurement label to °C, °F, or K, note that this has no effect on the temperature units set using
the UNIT:TEMPerature command.
– The CONFigure and MEASure? commands automatically reverts the unit to the natural units for the function.
– The instrument resets the units to the null string after a Factory Reset (*RST), an Instrument Preset
(SYSTem:PRESet).
