Sets the measurement in terms of digits of resolution:4. aRefDmmResolution3_5_Digits – 3 and a ½ Digits of Resolution.5. aRefDmmResolution4_5_Digits – 4 and a ½ Digits of Resolution.6. aRefDmmResolution5_5_Digits – 5 and a ½ Digits of Resolution.7. aRefDmmResolution6_5_Digits – 6 and a ½ Digits of Resolution. |

Returned status: 0 on success, negative number on failure. |
Resolution determines the number of digits returned in a normalized reading. Larger resolutions will result in slower measurement times for a given function. Setting the resolution will result in the aperture being set to a corresponding value internally.
The following example sets the resolution to 5 ½ digits:
LONG lHandle, lStatus;
CalRefDmmSetResolution (lHandle, aRefDmmResolution5_5_Digits, &lStatus);
