my $hp=new(\%options);

$datum=$hp->read_voltage_dc($range,$resolution,@scan_list);
Preset and make a dc voltage measurement with the specified range and resolution.
Range is given in terms of volts and can be [0.1|1|10|100|1000|MIN|MAX|DEF]. DEF is default.
Resolution is given in terms of $range or [MIN|MAX|DEF]. $resolution=0.0001 means 4 1/2 digits for example. The best resolution is 100nV: $range=0.1; $resolution=0.000001.
A list of channels to scan. See the instrument manual.
$hp->conf_monitor(@channels);
@channels=$hp->read_monitor();
$hp->display_on();
Turn the front-panel display on.
$hp->display_off();
Turn the front-panel display off.
$hp->display_text($text);
print $hp->display_text();
