1 Product Description
This precision bench-top/portable multimeter has dual measurement capability and a dual
display which can show either two independent measurements, a measurement together with
its range value, or a measurement with one of the many programmable functions available.
The key features are:
• Operation from AC line or built-in rechargeable batteries.
• 0.02% basic accuracy, 120,000 counts.
• Manual or Auto-ranging.
• DC and AC Volts, DC and AC current, Resistance, Capacitance, Frequency, and
Temperature measurement; Continuity and Diode checks.
• True RMS AC and AC+DC measurement.
• Two or Four wire selectable ohms measurement.
• Display nulling and Ohms null.
• Selectable measurement speed.
• Touch hold mode - holds onto a stable reading until updated.
• 500 point data logger with timer.
• Temperature measurement for PT100 or PT1000 sensors.
• Measurement post-processing to give:
dB and power measurement with settable reference impedances
percentage deviation from a user-entered reference
linear scaling with offset
limits comparison for go/no go testing
automatic storage of minimum and maximum readings.
• Remote control via USB interface (1908)
• Remote control via USB, RS232, GPIB and LAN (LXI) interfaces (1908P)
• External input/output remote triggering.
• 1908-PC Link software providing:
Remote control of main functions
Logging function with graphical & tabular displays
