Subsystem Commands
:SENSe:<CURRent[:DC]|VOLTage[:DC]>:RANGe:AUTO:MODE
:SENSe:<CURRent[:DC]|VOLTage[:DC]>:RANGe:AU
TO:MODE
Selects the operation mode of the automatic measurement ranging. This command
setting is not effective if the automatic ranging is disabled by the
:SENSe:<CURRent[:DC]|RESistance|VOLTage[:DC]>:RANGe:AUTO command.
Syntax :SENSe[c]:<CURRent[:DC]|VOLTage[:DC]>:RANGe:AUTO:MODE mode
:SENSe[c]:<CURRent[:DC]|VOLTage[:DC]>:RANGe:AUTO:MODE?
For <CURRent[:DC]|VOLTage[:DC]>, specify CURRent[:DC] for current
measurement, or VOLTage[:DC] for voltage measurement.
Parameter mode NORMal (default)|RESolution|SPEed. Parameter data type is
CPD.
mode=NORMal supports basic operation and downward changing operation
described below
mode=RESolution supports basic operation and upward changing operation
described below
mode=SPEed supports basic operation and upward and downward changing
operations described below
• Basic operation
The channel automatically sets the range which provides the best resolution to
perform the measurement.
• Upward changing operation
If measured data  value1, the range shifts upward after a measurement.
value1 = measurement range  rate / 100
• Downward changing operation
If measured data  value2, the range shifts downward immediately.
value2 = measurement range  rate / 1000
rate value is set by the
:SENSe:<CURRent[:DC]|VOLTage[:DC]>:RANGe:AUTO:THReshold command.
