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.
The change in digits occurs the next time a measurement is made.
To change the number of digits returned in a remote command reading, use
:FORMat:ASCii:PRECision.
The digits for the temperature, continuity, frequency, period, and capacitance functions are always
set to the default values and cannot be changed.
Example
Set the front panel to display current
measurements with 5½ digits.
