:MEASure[:<function>]?
The brackets enclosing :<function> indicate that a measurement function does not need to be
specified. When not used, the currently selected function will be used for the :MEASure?
operations.
where; <function> = VOLTage[:DC] DCV function
= CURRent[:DC] DCI function
= VOLTage:AC ACV function
= CURRent:AC ACI function
= RESistance 2 function
= FRESistance 4 function
= TEMPerature TEMP function
= FREQuency FREQ function
= VOLTage:FREQuency FREQ function (voltage input)
= CURRent:FREQuency FREQ function (current input)

Description This command combines all of the other signal oriented measurement commands to perform a
“one-shot” measurement and acquire the reading.
When this command is sent, the following commands are executed in the order that they are
presented:
:ABORt :CONFigure:<function> :READ?
When :ABORt is executed, the instrument will go into the idle state if continuous initiation is
disabled. Otherwise, operation will re-start at the beginning of the Trigger Model.
When :CONFigure is executed, the instrument will go into a “one-shot” measurement mode. See
:CONFigure for details.
When :READ? is executed, its operations will then be performed. In general, another :ABORt
will be performed, then an :INITiate and finally a FETCh? to acquire the reading. See :READ?
for details.
