R/W | N/A | IviDmm Configure Measurement |
Description
Specifies the measurement range. Use positive values to represent the absolute value of the maximum expected measurement. The value is in units appropriate for the current value of the IviDmm Function property. For example, when you set the IviDmm Function property to IVIDMM_VAL_DC_VOLTS, the units are volts. Setting this property to 10.0 configures the DMM to measure DC voltages from –10.0 to +10.0 volts.
 |
Note Negative values are reserved for controlling the DMM's auto-ranging capability. |
After you set this property to IVIDMM_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_OFF or IVIDMM_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_ONCE, further queries of this property return the actual range.
When you set this property to IVIDMM_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_ON, you can obtain the actual range the DMM is currently using by getting the value of the IviDmm Auto Range Value [ARV] property.
