Keysight 3458A Quick Reference Guide 13
All math registers are set to 0 (zero) except:
DEGREE = 20
SCALE = 1
PERC = 1
REF = 1
RES = 50
Pressing the shifted front panel Reset key performs 
the power-on sequence which has the same effect 
as cycling the multimeter's power. This stores the 
present state as state 0, destroys any stored 
readings and compressed subprograms, sets the 
power-on SRQ bit in the status register, resets the 
A-to-D converter reference frequency, returns the 
AC mode to analog, and performs the power-on 
self-test, Executing the RESET command from 
remote or from the alphabetic command menu 
(MENU keys) return the multimeter to the power-on 
state but does not perform the power-on sequence.
