dmm.configure.recall()
Remarks
This command will recall a saved DMM configuration from memory. The DMM
attributes associated with that configuration will be updated to reflect the settings in the
configuration. The ones not pertinent will not be changed. The function associated with
the configuration will become the active one. The previous values of those being
updated will be lost. The specified DMM configuration to recall may be a factory one or
user one.
To recall a factory configuration, send the function name as the config value. Valid
factory configurations are:
"dcvolts"
"acvolts"
"dccurrent"
"accurrent"
"twowireohms"
"fourwireohms"
"temperature"
"frequency"
"period"
"continuity"
"commonsideohms"
"nofunction"
Recalling a factory configuration also changes the corresponding DMM function
(dmm.func) and resets that function‟s attributes to their default values. Settings not
pertaining to the function will remain unchanged.
An error is generated if the specified configuration does not exist in memory.
