Details
This command affects how the reading for a measurement is displayed on the front panel of the instrument. It
does not affect the number of digits returned in a remote command reading. It also does not affect the accuracy
or speed of measurements.
The display digits setting is saved with the function setting, so if you use another function, then return to the
function for which you set display digits, the display digits setting you set previously is retained.
To change the number of digits returned in a remote command reading, use format.asciiprecision.
Example
smu.measure.func = smu.FUNC_DC_VOLTAGE
smu.measure.displaydigits = smu.DIGITS_6_5
Set the measurement function to voltage
with a front-panel display resolution of 6.5.
