(sets DISPlay:DIGit:MASK:AUTO to OFF).
l Measurement data returned by the READ?, FETCh?, and MEASure? queries is unaffected by this com-
mand.
l Totalize measurements are unaffected by this command. All digits of the totalize count are always
shown.
l The digit mask is unaffected by a Factory Reset (*RST command), or an Instrument Preset
(SYSTem:PRESet command). It is set to 15 at power-on.
Return Format
The query returns the lower limit in the form +15.
