Scaling function results must be in the range of 
-1.0E+24 to -1.0E-24, 0.0,  or 
+1.0E-24 to 1.0E+24. Results outside these limits will be replaced with -9.9E+37 
(negative infinity), 
0, or +9.9E+37 (positive infinity).
Following a reset (
*RST) or instrument preset (SYSTem:PRESet), the scaling 
function is set to 
NULL.
Scale Reference Value
 
The 
NULL, PCT, PPM, and PPB scaling functions require a reference value. For PCT, 
PPM, and PPB the value cannot be ‘0’.The reference can be obtained automatically 
or specified directly with the commands:
CALCulate[1]:SCALe:REFerence:AUTO {OFF|ON} 
CALCulate[1]:SCALe:REFerence:AUTO?   (query form)
CALCulate[1]:SCALe:REFerence {<reference>|MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault} 
CALCulate[1]:SCALe:REFerence? [{MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault}] (query form)
ON
 - automatically selects the first measurement as the reference for all 
subsequent readings in the reading count (trigger count x sample count). 
OFF 
disables automatic selection and requires the reference to be specified directly. 
Following a reset (
*RST) or instrument preset (SYSTem:PRESet), automatic 
reference selection is enabled (
ON).
<reference> - specifies the reference value directly. The reference is used for all 
readings in the reading count.
