Autozero<br />
Features and Functions 3<br />
When autozero is enabled (default), the instrument internally <br />
disconnects the input signal following each measurement, and takes a <br />
zero reading. It then subtracts the zero reading from the preceding<br />
reading. This prevents offset voltages present on the instrument’s input<br />
circuitry from affecting measurement accuracy.<br />
When autozero is disabled, the instrument takes one zero reading and<br />
subtracts it from all subsequent measurements. It takes a new zero reading<br />
each time you change the function, range, or integration time.<br />
Applies to dc voltage, resistance, temperature, and dc current<br />
measurements only.<br />
The autozero mode is set indirectly when you set the resolution and<br />
integration time. Autozero is automatically turned off when you select<br />
an integration time less than 1 PLC.<br />
The CONFigure and MEASure? commands automatically enable autozero.<br />
The autozero setting is stored in non- volatile memory, and does <br />
not change when power has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST<br />
command), or after an Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command).<br />
Front Panel Operation: DMM or Channel (Configure) > AUTO ZERO<br />
Remote Interface Operation: The OFF and ONCE parameters have a similar<br />
effect. Autozero OFF does not issue a new zero measurement. Autozero<br />
ONCE issues an immediate zero measurement.<br />
