RESistance:RANGe
[SENSe:]RESistance:RANGe <range> selects the range for 2-wire and 4-wire
resistance measurements.
For a complete listing of range and resolution values available, see
Table 5-1 on page 120.

Comments • To select a standard measurement range, specify range as the input signal’s
maximum expected resistance. The multimeter then selects the correct range.
•
MIN
selects the minimum range available with the RESistance:RANGe command
(256 Ω).
MAX selects the maximum range available (1048576 Ω).
• You must select a range using RESistance:RANGe before specifying resolution.
Also, in order to specify an aperture time of 10 µs, you must select a fixed range.
• Specifying a fixed range disables the autorange mode set by the
RES:RANG:AUTO command.
• The RES:RANG command overrides the range setting from a previous CONFigure
command on the same function. The multimeter uses the same aperture time to
set the resolution on the new range as was selected by
CONFigure.
• *RST Condition: RES:RANG 16384 Ω
Example Changing the Range
CONF:RES 1320,MAX,(@105:109) !Function: 2-wire ohms;
range selected: 1861 Ω;
MAX resolution: 125 Ω;
specify channel list.
RES:RANG 220
!Range selected: 256 Ω;
MAX resolution: 15.625 mΩ.
READ? !Place multimeter in wait-for-trigger state and
make measurements; send readings to output
buffer.
