Function Overview
The following table summarizes which ranging mode can be used in each case.
Table 1-4
Measurement Range (Sense Range)
When the Limit value is specified, the measurement range is set to the minimum
range that includes the Limit value.

SEAMLESS
Seamless Current Measurement Ranging
This function allows you to measure current with the best resolution over multiple
ranges without changing the range.
In this function, current measurement is performed at multiple ranges
simultaneously, and then the value with the best resolution is automatically
selected. The M9602A/M9603A uses the 10 mA range in addition to the minimum
range including the Limit value.
Trigger System
Trigger system can be used to control the timing of the source output and the
measurement.The M9602A/M9603A supports the ARM-TRIGger model in 1999
SCPI Command Reference. This trigger model is independently applied to two
device actions: Transient (source output) and Acquire (measurement). These two
device actions can start simultaneously or separately.

Linear sweep output
List sweep output
Fixed range
The range is specified. If the range is smaller than the
measurement range defined by the Limit value, the specified
range is used as the measurement range during the
measurement.
