HP WaterSkis E1412A, WaterSkis E1312A manual VOLTageDCRESolution?

VOLTage[:DC]:RESolution

[SENSe:]VOLTage[:DC]:RESolution <resolution> selects the resolution for DC voltage measurements.

Parameters

Parameter Name	Parameter Type	Range of Values	Default Units
<resolution>	numeric	resolutionMINMAX	volts

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 VOLTage: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 or select a specific integration time using VOLTage:DC:NPLC.

•If necessary to achieve the specified resolution, the multimeter will increase the integration time as needed. This command overrides the results of previously executed VOLTage:DC:NPLC commands (the last command executed has priority).

•The VOLT:DC:RES command overrides the resolution setting from a previous

CONFigure:VOLT:DC:RES command.

•Related Commands: CONFigure, VOLTage:AC:NPLC

•*RST Condition: Based on the *RST values for the VOLTage:NPLC command.

Example Change the Resolution

CONF:VOLT:DC 6.25,MAX	Function: DC volts; range selected: 10V;
VOLT:DC:RANG 0.95	MAX resolution.
	Range selected: 1V; MAX resolution.
VOLT:DC:RES 3E-07	Set resolution to 0.3 μV.

VOLTage[:DC]:RESolution?

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

•The present resolution selected if MIN or MAX is not specified. Only the resolution values available on ranges set by the RANGe command are returned.

•The resolution with the smallest value (i.e., the best resolution) for the selected range if MIN is specified.

•The resolution with the largest value (i.e., the worst resolution) for the selected range if MAX is specified.
