Details
These commands are used to select display resolution for the specified measurement function.
Even though the parameters for this command are expressed as integers (4 to 7), you can specify
resolution using real numbers. For example, to select 3.5 digit resolution let <n> = 3.5, for 4.5-digit
resolution let <n> = 4.5, and so on. Internally, the instrument rounds the entered parameter value to
the nearest integer.
