2 Quick Start
Front- Panel Display Shortcuts
Direct front–panel shortcuts are provided for three commonly used display
functions: ranging, digit masking, and integration time.
Ranging. The multimeter’s manual range can be set directly from the
navigation keypad.
To manually change the current multimeter range, press or . The
ManRng annunciator will light, and the selected range (e.g. 100mV RANGE)
will be briefly displayed on the second line.
Digit Masking. The navigation keypad provides a shortcut to mask
(change the number of digits displayed) the reading on the main display,
easing readability.
To enable digit masking during any measurement function, press
or . DIGIT MASK will be displayed, along with a list of
choices (3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 and AUTO) on the second display line. Press
or to scroll through and select one of these settings, and then
press .
Integration Time (Bandwidth, Gate Time). Four measurement functions
allow you to select the multimeter’s integration time: dc voltage, dc
current, resistance, and temperature. The ac voltage and current
measurements allow you to select the ac signal filter (bandwidth). The
frequency/period function allows you to select gate time. The navigation
keypad provides a shortcut for quickly changing these settings.
If the multimeter is configured to take the measurement using an
integration time in NPLCs, pressing or during front panel
measurement operations will increase or decrease the integration time
setting.
If either the ac voltage or ac current measurement function is selected,
pressing or during front panel measurement operations will
increase or decrease the bandwidth setting.
If the frequency/period measurement function is selected, pressing
or during front panel measurement operations will increase or
decrease the gate time setting.
