Details
Description These commands are used to enable or disable auto resolution for the specified function.
With auto resolution selected, the instrument automatically selects the optimum resolution for the
present integration time setting.
The ONCE parameter is analogous to a momentary toggle switch. When :AUTO ONCE is sent, auto
resolution turns on momentarily and then disables. While enabled, resolution is selected
automatically. Auto resolution then disables but the selected value is retained.
The auto resolution command (:DIGits:AUTO) is coupled to the command that manually selects
resolution (:DIGits <n>). When auto resolution is enabled, the parameter value for :DIGits <n>
changes to the automatically selected resolution value. Thus, when auto resolution is disabled, the
instrument remains at the automatically selected resolution.
