Remarks This Secondary function sets the DC voltage source to ldVolts. The DMM must be in
C ction to execute properly. When the DMM is in VDC_SRC
operation, and the DMMSetDCVSource is applied, reading the DMM (DMMRead or
DMMReadStr) will return the measurement of the output voltage. This function acts on
