(the readings are not erased when you read them).
You can use the READ? command in one of three forms depending on
which measurement mode you wish to use.
• If you omit the optional <ch_list> parameter and a scan list is not
currently defined, the READ? command applies to the internal DMM.
• If you omit the optional <ch_list> parameter and a scan list is currently
defined, the READ? command performs a scan of the channels in the
scan list.
• If you specify a <ch_list>, regardless of whether a scan list is currently
defined, the READ? command performs a "temporary" scan of the
specified channels (independent of the present scan list).
You can use the MEASure? command in one of two forms depending on
which measurement mode you wish to use.
• If you omit the optional <ch_list> parameter, the MEASure? command
applies to the internal DMM.
• If you specify a <ch_list>, the MEASure? command performs a
"temporary" scan of the specified channels (independent of the
