Setting the Function, Range, and Resolution

See also “General Measurement Configuration” in chapter 4 starting

on page 98.

• For 4-wire measurements, the instrument automatically pairs

channel n with channel n+10 (34901A) or n+8 (34902A) to provide the

source and sense connections. Specify the paired channel in the lower

bank (source) as the ch_list channel.

• Current measurements are allowed only on channels 21 and 22

on the HP 34901A multiplexer module.

[SENSe:]FUNCtion "<

function>"[,(@<ch_list>)]

Select the measurement function on the specified channels. The function

name must be enclosed in quotes in the command string (for example,

FUNC "VOLT:DC"). Specify one of the following strings to set the function.

TEMPerature

VOLTage[:DC]

VOLTage:AC

RESistance

FRESistance

CURRent[:DC]

CURRent:AC

FREQuency

PERiod

• Note that when you change the measurement function on a channel,

all of the other measurement attributes (range, resolution, etc.) are

set to their default values.

• You cannot set any function-specific measurement attributes unless

the channel is already configured for that function. For example,

you cannot set the ac filter unless that channel is already configured

for ac voltage or ac current measurements.

[SENSe:]FUNCtion? [(

@<ch_list>)]

Query the measurement function on the specified channels and return

a quoted string. The short form of the function name is always returned

(for example, "VOLT").
