Configuring for Highest Accuracy Measurements
The measurement configurations shown below assume that the multimeter
is in its power
–
on or reset state. It is also assumed that auto–ranging is
enabled to ensure proper full scale range selection.
DC Voltage, DC Current, and Resistance Measurements:
•
Select
NPLC
and
100
(NPLCs) for
INTEGRATION
.
•
Set
INPUT Z
to
HI
–
Z
(for the
100 mV
,
1 V
, and
10 V
ranges) for the best dc
voltage accuracy.
•
Use the 4
–
wire ohms function (
W
4W) for the best resistance
measurement accuracy.
•
For 2
–
wire ohms, dc voltage and dc current measurements, set
AUTOZERO
to
ON
to remove thermal EMF and offset errors.
•
Null the test lead resistance for 2
–
wire ohms measurements, and to
remove any interconnection offset for dc voltage measurements.
AC Voltage and AC Current Measurements:
•
Set the
AC FILTER
to
3 Hz: SLOW
.
Frequency and Period Measurements:
•
Set the
GATE TIME
to
1 sec
.
