About expected_value

A parameter can be passed to the MEAS:<meter_fn>? and CONF:<meter_fn> commands. The parameters can be omitted.

MEASure:<meter_fn>? [<expected_value>]

CONFigure:<meter_fn> [<expected_value>]

<expected_value> specifies the expected measured data value. If this value is specified explicitly, the range of the corresponding <meter_fn> is set to the appropriate setting. If <expected_value> is set to DEFault or is omitted, AUTO range is selected.

Example:

MEAS:IMP? 50E-3   'Start the 50mΩ measurement at the appropriate range and query the impedance data.

MEAS:IMP? DEF

  'Start the measurement in AUTO range and query the impedance data.
MEAS:IMP? 'Start the measurement in AUTO range and query the impedance data.
