Section 8: TSP command reference

dmm.measure.unit

This attribute sets the units of measurement that are displayed on the front panel of the instrument and stored in
the reading buffer.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Attribute (RW) Yes
Usage
value = dmm.measure.unit
dmm.measure.unit = value
value
Functions
dmm.FUNC_DC_VOLTAGE
dmm.FUNC_AC_VOLTAGE
dmm.FUNC_DC_CURRENT
dmm.FUNC_AC_CURRENT
dmm.FUNC_TEMPERATURE
Details
The change in measurement units is displayed when the next measurement occurs. You can only
change the units for the voltage, temperature, and digitize voltage functions. Other functions have a
fixed units setting that cannot be changed.
Example
dmm.measure.func = dmm.FUNC_DC_VOLTAGE
dmm.measure.unit = dmm.UNIT_DB
