CONFigure Subsystem
CONFigure commands provide the most flexible way to program the instrument for measurements. When you
execute these commands, the instrument uses default values for the requested measurement configuration (like the
MEASure? command). However, the measurement is not automatically started and you can change some meas-
urement attributes before actually initiating the measurement. This allows you to incrementally change the instru-
ment's configuration from the default conditions.
Supported on all KeysightDAQ970A/DAQ973A plug-in modules that can be configured to be part of a scan.
Internal DMMmust also be enabled.
Use the INITiate or READ? command to initiate the measurement. A MEASure? command is equivalent to
a CONFigure command followed by a READ?.
The CONFigure commands will disable the DMM Digitize data acquisition mode and the instrument will be in
normal scan mode. However, no error will be generated when you send any CONFigure command in DMM
Digitize mode.
