:RANGe

Command syntax:

:FREQuency:THReshold:VOLTage:RANGe Set voltage threshold range.

:PERiod:THReshold:VOLTage:RANGe

Set voltage threshold range.

Command parameter:

= 0 to 1010

Specify signal levels in volts (voltage threshold)

Query:

:RANGe?

Query maximum signal level.

Description:

These commands are used to specify the expected input level. The instrument will then

automatically select the most ideal current or voltage threshold range.

:REFerence Commands

:REFerence

Command syntax:

:FREQuency:REFerence

Specify reference for FREQ

:PERiod:REFerence

Specify reference for PER

Command parameter:

=

0 to 1.0e6 Reference for FREQ

0 to 1 Reference for PER

DEFault

0 (All measurement functions)

MINimum Minimum value for specified function

MAXimum Maximum value for specified function

Query:

:REFerence?

Query reference for relative function

Description:

These commands are used to establish a reference value for the specified function. When reference

is enabled (:REFerence:STATe), the result will be the algebraic difference between the input signal

and the reference value:

Reading = Input signal

– Reference

From the front panel, reference is called relative (REL).

The :REFerence command is coupled to the :ACQuire command. The last command sent

(:REFerence or :ACQuire) establishes the reference. When a reference is set using

the :REFerence command, the REFerence? query command returns the programmed value.

Conversely, when a reference is set using the :ACQuire command, the :REFerence? query

command returns the acquired reference value.
