VOLTage[:DC]:RANGe?
[SENSe:]VOLTage[:DC]:RANGe? [MIN | MAX] returns one of the following
numbers to the output buffer.
The present voltage range selected if
MIN or MAX are not specified. Only the ranges
available with the
RANGe command are returned. For example, if CONFigure
selects the 0.91 V range, 1.0 V is the range returned.
The minimum voltage range available with the
VOLTage:DC:RANGe command
(0.125 V) if
MIN is specified.
The maximum voltage range available with the
VOLTage:DC:RANGe command
(300 V) if
MAX is specified.

VOLTage:NPLC
[SENSe:]VOLTage:NPLC <number> sets the integration time in power line cycles
(PLCs). Values are rounded up to the nearest number of PLCs shown in the
following table.
Parameters
Parameter Name Parameter Type Range of Values Default Units
<number>

MIN | MAX
PLCs
Comments •
MIN
selects 0.0005 PLCs. MAX selects 16 PLCs. Setting the integration time in
PLCs also sets the aperture time and the resolution. For example, 16 PLCs (60 Hz
line frequency) sets an aperture time of 267 ms. The corresponding resolution
depends on the function and range you select.
• The VOLT:NPLC command overrides the results of previously executed
VOLTage:APERture and VOLTage:RESolution commands (the last command
executed has priority).
