dmm.rel.level
Example
To perform an AC current measurement and use it as the relative offset value:
dmm.func = "accurrent"
dmm.rel.level = dmm.measure()
To acquire a relative offset value:
rel_value = dmm.measure()
dmm.rel.level = rel_value
To acquire a fresh REL level after using dmm.measure to set one:
dmm.rel.enable = dmm.OFF
dmm.rel.level = dmm.measure()
dmm.rel.enable = dmm.ON
To acquire a REL level value for temperature (using dmm.rel.acquire):
dmm.func = "temperature"
rel_value = dmm.rel.acquire()
dmm.reset
Function
Resets DMM aspects of the system, as indicated by the parameter.
Usage
dmm.reset(scope)
scope
: A string equaling ―active‖ for active function only to factory default settings or
―all‖ for all functions back to factory default settings.
Remarks
When the parameter equals ―active‖, this command will only reset the DMM aspects of
the system for the active function only. Settings affects are:
Active dmm function (
dmm.func
(on page 9-91)) has its pertinent attributes reset to
factory default values.
Other functions are unchanged.
DMM configurations (
dmm.setconfig
(on page 9-116),
dmm.getconfig
(on page 9-
92)) are unchanged. The rest of the settings are unaffected. To reset, the entire
system to factory default settings use the reset command. To reset all functions of
the dmm, use the dmm.reset(―all‖) command.
When the parameter equals ―all‖, this command will only reset the dmm aspects of the
system to factory default settings. Settings affected are
Selected dmm function (
dmm.func
(on page 9-91
)) goes to ―dcvolts‖.
Dmm settings go to defaults for ―dcvolts‖.
Each other function is reset back to its factory default settings as well.
The rest of the settings are unaffected. To reset the entire system to factory default
settings, use the reset command. To reset the active function, use this command
with the parameter set to ―active‖.
