Query:
:CONFigure? Query the selected function.
Return String Example:
volt:dc
Description:
This command configures the instrument for subsequent measurements on the specified function. It
places the instrument in the selected measurement mode. You then use the :READ? command to
trigger a measurement and acquire a reading.
When this command is sent, the multimeter will be configured as follows:
 The function specified by this command is selected.
 All controls related to the selected function are defaulted to the *RST values.
 Continuous initiation is disabled.
 The control source of the Trigger Model is set to Immediate.
 The delay of the Trigger Model is set to zero.
 All math calculations are disabled.
 Buffer operation is disabled. A storage operation currently in process will be aborted.
 Autozero is set to the *RST default value.
This command is automatically asserted when the :MEASure? Command is sent.
