— Auto range thresholds:
Down range at:
Up range at:
— If the input signal is greater than can be measured on the selected range (manual ranging), the
instrument gives an overload indication : OL (positive overload) or -OL (negative overload) from the
front panel or "±9.9E+37" from the remote interface.
— For the available measurement functions in dual display mode, refer to the Keysight 34450A User
Guide.
Examples
The following program segment configures the instrument for DC voltage measurements. The READ?
command places the instrument in the "wait-for-trigger" state, triggers a measurement, and then sends
the reading to memory and the instrument output buffer. The default range (auto range) and resolution (5
1/2 digits) are used for the measurement.

The following program segment configures the instrument for DC voltage measurements. The INITiate
command places the instrument in the "wait-for-trigger" state, triggers a measurement, and stores the
reading in memory. The
