Remarks
With the internal DMM disabled, any command received that is directed to the DMM or requires its use (e.g., configuring a multiplexer channel for a DMM measurement), will generate an error.
When you change the state of the internal DMM, the instrument issues a Factory Reset (*RST command).
If you ordered the internal DMM, it is enabled when shipped from the factory.
The internal DMM setting is stored in volatile memory and will be enabled (ON) when power is turned off or after a Factory Reset (*RST command).
Return Format
The query command returns "0" (OFF) or "1" (ON).
