Syntax CONFigure:CURRent[:DC]
[{<range>|AUTO|MIN|MAX|DEF}[,{<resolution>|MIN|MAX|DEF}],](@<scan_list>)
Description Configure the specified channels to the DCI measurement function with the specified range
and resolution, but do not initiate the scan.
Parameters
Name
Type
Range
Default
<range> Numeric
Any numeric value between MIN and MAX. The
final range is decided by the
Principle of setting
with greater value
”.
The standard values of the range:
{200μA|2mA|20mA|200mA|1A}
Wherein, MIN=200μA, MAX=1A, DEF=AUTO.
AUTO
<resolution> Numeric
Can receive any numeric value between
0.03ppm×<range> and 3ppm×<range>. The
final resolution is decided by the
Principle of
setting with smaller value
”.
The standard values of the resolution: refer to
the Explanation.

Scan
List
One or more channels (only for channel 21 to
channel 24 of MC3324), the rules are as follows:
(@121): channel 21 on the module in Slot1;
(@121:123): channel 21 through 23
on the
module in Slot1;
(@121:123,321): channel 21 through 23 on the
module in Slot1 and channel 21 on the module in
Slot3.
None
Explanation This command is only applicable to channel 21 to channel 24 of MC3324. When
<scan_list> is set to other channels, an error will be generated.
The CONFigure command does not place the instrument into the wait-for-trigger
state. You can send the
INITiate or READ? command with the CONFigure command to
place the instrument into the wait-for-triggerstate.
You can select autoranging to allow the instrument to automatically select a proper
measurement range or you can select a fixed range to set the range manually.
Autoranging rule: for signals under test that is between 10%*Range and
110%*Range, the instrument automatically selects Range as the current range.
When <range> is set to DEF or AUTO, an error will be generated if <resolution> is set
to a numeric value, because the instrument cannot calculate the integration time
accurately (especially when the input signal is continuously changing) when the
autoranging is combined with a numeric resolution. If your application requires
autoranging, be sure to specify "DEF" for <resolution> or omit the parameter.
<resolution> is related to the current integration time and range (<range>). The
relations are as shown in the table below.
