Parameters

Description
<NRf> = 0 to 1e-3 Specify diode test current
[UPPer]? Query selected range
There are three current ranges available for the diode test: 10µA range,
100µA range, and the 1mA range. Range is selected by using this command
to specify the expected current for the diode under test. The instrument will
then select the appropriate range.
<NRf> = 1 to 1000 Specify threshold in ohms
:THReshold? Query threshold resistance
This command is used to specify the threshold resistance for the continuity
test. Continuity occurs when the measurement is less than or equal to the
specified threshold level.
<name> = THD
THDN
SINAD
TYPE? Query measurement type
This command selects the type of distortion measurement. Selecting SINAD
sets the units to dB. Trying to change units to percent generates a
-221 Settings Conflict Error. Units remain dB when changing back to THD
or THD+n, but can then be changed to percent.
