186 Chapter 6 Command Reference
In the following program, line 10 allows %_resolution in line 20 to control the
resolution. The resolution specified by line 20 is 6V × .0000167 = 100µV.
10 OUTPUT 722;"NPLC 0"
20 OUTPUT 722;"FUNC DCV,6,.00167" !SELECTS DC VOLTS, 6V MAX,
30 END
In the following program, line 10 sets the number of PLCs to 1000. This
corresponds to maximum resolution (7.5 digits) and prevents %_resolution in line
20 from affecting the measurement. The requested resolution from line 20 is
10mW. However. because of line 10, the actual resolution is 100µW.
10 OUTPUT 722;"NPLC 1000"
20 OUTPUT 722;"FUNC OHM,1E3,.001" !SELECTS 2-WIRE OHMS,
30 END
Identity Query. The multimeter responds to the ID? command by sending the
string "HP 3458A". This feature allows the GPIB controller to locate the
multimeter by its address.

Input Buffer. Enables or disables the multimeter's input buffer. When enabled,
the input buffer temporarily stores the commands it receives over the GPIB bus.
This releases the bus immediately after a command is received, allowing the
controller to perform other tasks while the multimeter executes the stored
command.
