Parameters
Comments MINimum selects the best resolution (the smallest value) for the selected range.
MAXimum selects the worst resolution (the largest value) for the selected

fixed range. Otherwise, the resolution will change to correspond with the range
selected during autoranging.
Specify resolution in the same units as the measurement function.
If autoranging is required, set the resolution using the MIN or MAX parameter.
