FUNC

Syntax
function
max._input
Function. Selects the type of measurement (AC voltage, DC current. etc.). lt also
allows you to specify the measurement range and resolution. (The FUNC header
is optional and may be omitted.)
FUNC [function][,max._input][,%_resolution]
or
[FUNC] function[,max._input][,%_resolution]
The function parameter designates the type of measurement. The parameter
choices are:

Power-on function = DCV.
Default function = DCV.
Selects a fixed range or the autorange mode. To select a fixed range, you specify
max._input as the absolute value (no negative numbers) of the input signal's
maximum expected amplitude (or the maximum resistance for ohms
measurements). The multimeter then selects the correct range.
