Comments To select a standard measurement range, specify range as the input signal’s maximum expected resistance. The multimeter then selects the correct range that will accept the input.

The AUTO or DEFault option for the range parameter enables autorange. The DEF option for the resolution parameter defaults the integration time to 10 PLC.

The MIN and MAX parameters select the minimum or maximum values for range and resolution:

For range: MIN = 100 Ω; MAX =100MΩ

For resolution: MIN selects the best resolution (the smallest value) for the selected range. MAX selects the worst resolution (the largest value) for the selected range.

To select autorange, specify AUTO or DEF for range or do not specify a value for the range and resolution parameters. In the autorange mode, the multimeter samples the input signal before each measurement and selects the appropriate range.

To specify a MIN or MAX resolution while autoranging, you must specify MEAS:FRES? DEF (you cannot omit the range parameter). This prevents the MIN or MAX resolution from being interpreted as a range setting and the resulting command becomes MEAS:FRES? DEF,MIN or

MEAS:FRES? DEF,MAX.
