Math Functions
In addition to providing separate null measurement per function
capability, the multimeter provides four additional math functions: dB
measurements (
dB
), dBm measurements (
dBm
), statistics for multiple
readings (

) and limit testing (

can be enabled at a time (in addition to null measurement), and remains
in effect until you turn it off or change it.
