Specifies the unit character for the y = mx + b operation.
To read unit character for y = mx + b operation:
value = dmm.math.mxb.units
To write unit character for y = mx + b operation:
dmm.math.mxb.units = value
value: Valid characters, A to Z, '[' char for micro symbol (as in µV), use ']' char for ohm
symbol (as in ) and use '\\' char for degree symbol (as in °).
This attribute represents the unit character to use when the math format is set for mx +
b (dmm.math.format = dmm.MATH_MXB).
Default setting is ‗X'.
dmm.math.format (on page 9-100)
To set the units for mx +b operation to 'Q':
dmm.math.mxb.units = 'Q'
Specifies the constant to use for the percent operation.
To read the constant for the percent operation:
value = dmm.math.percent
To write the constant for the percent operation:
dmm.math.percent = value
value: Valid range is -4294967295 to +4294967295
This attribute represents the constant to use for percent.
dmm.math.format (on page 9-100)
To constant for percent operation to 1250:
dmm.math.percent = 1250
To acquire the percent constant:
dmm.math.percent = dmm.measure()
