Details
Determines the full-scale input for the reference measurement in the denominator of the ratio. It also
affects the accuracy of the measurements and the maximum signal that can be measured. Autorange
is automatically set to off if a specific value is set.
When you assign a range value, the instrument is set on a fixed range that is large enough to
measure the assigned value. The instrument selects the best range for measuring the maximum
expected value.
For example, if you expect a sense reading of approximately 9 V, set the range to 9 V to select the
10 V range.
This command is primarily intended to eliminate the time that is required by the instrument to select
an automatic range.
Note that when you select a fixed range, an overflow condition can occur.
When you read this setting, you see the positive full-scale value of the sense range that the
instrument is presently using.
Example
dmm.measure.func = dmm.FUNC_DCV_RATIO
dmm.measure.sense.range = 1
Select the DC voltage ratio function.
Set the sense range to 1 V.
