1. For measure only, the following rules apply (Table 9 provides an example to measure I only):
a. To measure V only, you must source I. To measure I only, you must source V.
b. The source must be set to 0V or 0A.
c. When measuring V only, DO NOT use auto range.
d. When measuring V only, voltage compliance MUST be set higher than the voltage being measured.
2. :xxx = :VOLTage or :CURRent.
