CURRent[:DC]:RESolution

[SENSe:]CURRent[:DC]:RESolution <resolution> selects the resolution for DC current measurements.

Parameters


Parameter Name	Parameter Type	Range of Values	Default Units

<resolution>	numeric	resolution MINMAX	amps

Comments • MINimum selects the best resolution (the smallest value) for the selected range. MAXimum selects the worst resolution (the largest value) for the selected range.

•You must select a range using CURRent:DC:RANGe before specifying resolution. Also, only specify a resolution when making measurements on a fixed range. Otherwise, the resolution will change to correspond with the range selected during autoranging.

•If autoranging is required, set the resolution using the MIN or MAX parameters.

•Changing the resolution also changes the NPLC and APERture setting to the values that correspond with the resolution specified.

CURRent[:DC]:RESolution?

[SENSe:]CURRent[:DC]:RESolution? [MINMAX] returns one of the following numbers to the output buffer:

•The present current resolution selected if MIN or MAX is not specified. Only the resolutions available with the RESolution command are returned. For example, if CONFigure selects 10mA resolution, 10mA is the resolution returned.

•The minimum current resolution available (1μA) if MIN is specified.

•The maximum current resolution available (100μA) if MAX is specified.

Example Query the DC Current Measurement Range

CURR:DC:RES 3	Select 3A resolution.
CURR:DC:RES?	Query multimeter to return the present
