Details

These commands are used to select display resolution for the specified measurement function.

Even though the parameters for this command are expressed as integers (4 to 7), you can specify

resolution using real numbers. For example, to select 3.5 digit resolution let <n> = 3.5, for 4.5-digit

resolution let <n> = 4.5, and so on. Internally, the instrument rounds the entered parameter value to

the nearest integer.
