12: SCPI command reference 2470 High Voltage SourceMeter Instrument
12-54 2470-901-01 Rev. A / May 2019
If the source function is the same as the measurement function (for example, sourcing voltage and
measuring voltage), the measurement range is the same as the source range, regardless of
measurement range setting. However, the setting for the measure range is retained, and when the
source function is changed (for example, from sourcing voltage to sourcing current), the retained
measurement range is used.
If you change the range while the output is off, the instrument does not update the hardware settings,
but if you read the range setting, the return is the setting that will be used when the output is turned
on. If you set a range while the output is on, the new setting takes effect immediately.
When you set a value for the measurement range, the measurement autorange setting is
automatically disabled for the selected measurement function (if supported by that function).
The range for measure functions defaults to autorange for all measure functions. When you switch
from autorange to range, the range is set to the last selected autorange value.
