Features and Functions
Configuring AC Voltage and Current Measurements
For ac voltage and current measurements, your configuration menu
choices are:
AC FILTER
,
RANGE
,
NULL
and
NULL VALUE
.
•
AC FILTER
: Allows you to select one of three choices (
SLOW
,
MEDIUM
or
FAST
) of bandwidth (ac signal filter), enabling you to optimize
low–frequency accuracy or achieve faster ac settling times.
•
RANGE
: Allows you to let the multimeter automatically select the range
using the
autoranging
feature (select
AUTO
), or you may select a fixed
range using
manual ranging
(select
MANUAL
).
•
NULL
: Allows you to enable (select
ON
) or disable (select
OFF
) the null
measurement feature, which measures the difference between a stored
null value and the input signal.
•
NULL VALUE
: Allows you to view and edit the null value.
Configuring Resistance Measurements
For 2–wire and 4–wire resistance measurements, your configuration menu
choices are:
INTEGRATION
,
RANGE
,
OFFSET COMP
,
AUTO ZERO
,
NULL
and
NULL VALUE
.
•
INTEGRATION
: Allows you to set the integration time for the measurement
in two ways; in power–line cycles (select
NPLC
) or in seconds (select
APERTURE
).
•
RANGE
: Allows you to let the multimeter automatically select the range
using the
autoranging
feature (select
AUTO
), or you may select a fixed
range using
manual ranging
(select
MANUAL
).
•
OFFSET COMP
: Allows you to enable (select
ON
) or disable (select
OFF
) the
offset compensation feature. With offset compensation enabled, the
multimeter makes a normal resistance measurement first, followed by a
second measurement to determine any offset voltage in the input
circuitry. The resultant displayed measurement corrects for this offset.
Enabling offset compensation increases measurement time.
•
AUTO ZERO
: Allows you to enable for all readings (select
ON
), enable for
one reading (select
ONCE
), or disable (select
OFF
) the auto zero feature,
which subtracts a subsequent zero reading from each measurement
taken, to prevent offset voltages in the multimeter’s input circuitry from
affecting measurement accuracy.
•
NULL
: Allows you to enable (select
ON
) or disable (select
OFF
) the null
measurement feature, which measures the difference between a stored
null value and the input signal.
•
NULL VALUE
: Allows you to view and edit the null value.
