Description
Specifies the measurement range. Use positive values to represent the absolute value of the maximum expected measurement.

Note The NI 4050, NI 4060, and NI 4065 only support Auto Range when the trigger and sample trigger are set to IMMEDIATE. |
Defined Values
(-1.0) | NIDMM_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_ON | NI-DMM performs an Auto Range before acquiring the measurement. |
(-2.0) | NIDMM_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_OFF | NI-DMM sets the Range to the current NIDMM_ATTR_AUTO_RANGE_VALUE and uses this range for all subsequent measurements until the measurement configuration is changed. |
(-3.0) | NIDMM_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_ONCE | NI-DMM performs an Auto Range before acquiring the next measurement. The NIDMM_ATTR_AUTO_RANGE_VALUE is stored and used for all subsequent measurements until the measurement configuration is changed. |
