Analog bar-graph
The analog bar graph provides a visual indication of measurement like a traditional analog meter
needle. It is excellent in detecting faulty contacts, identifying potentiometer clicks, and indicating
signal spikes during adjustments.
Average sensing RMS calibrated
RMS (Root-Mean-Square) is the term used to describe the effective or equivalent DC value of an
AC signal. Most digital multimeters use average sensing RMS calibrated technique to measure
RMS values of AC signals. This technique is to obtain the average value by rectifying and filtering
the AC signal. The average value is then scaled upward (calibrated) to read the RMS value of a
sine wave. In measuring pure sinusoidal waveform, this technique is fast, accurate and cost
effective. In measuring non-sinusoidal waveforms, however, significant errors can be introduced
because of different scaling factors relating average to RMS values.
4) OPERATION
CAUTION
Before and after hazardous voltage measurements, test the voltage function on a known source
such as line voltage to determine proper meter functioning.
DCV, ACV, & Line Frequency functions
Press the SELECT button momentarily to select the subject functions in sequence. Last selection
will be saved as power up default for repeat measurement convenience.
Note:
*Input sensitivity varies automatically with function range selected before activating the Hz
