Description These commands are used to control auto ranging. With auto ranging en-
abled, the instrument automatically goes to the most sensitive range to
perform the measurement.
The auto range command (:RANGe:AUTO) is coupled to the command
that manually selects the measurement range (:RANGe <n>). When
auto range is enabled, the parameter value for :RANGe <n> changes to
the automatically selected range value. Thus, when auto range is dis
-
abled, the instrument remains at the automatically selected range. When
a valid :RANGe <n> command is sent, auto ranging disables.
