7 Multimeter Measurements
The 4-channel R&S RTH1004 has 4 software-based voltmeters, which can measure in
parallel. For each voltmeter you can select the source and measurement type. See
Voltmeter (R&S RTH1004).
The 2-channel R&S RTH1002 has a hardware-based digital multimeter with two sepa-
rate banana plug inputs for various multimeter measurements. Except for voltages, the
DMM can also measure resistance, capacitance, temperature and more. See Digital
Multimeter (R&S RTH1002).
7.1 Digital Multimeter (R&S RTH1002)
The hardware-based digital multimeter features various multimeter measurements.
Except for voltages, the DMM can also measure resistance, capacitance, temperature
and more.
The R&S RTH can run one DMM measurement at a time, the maximum resolution is
10000 counts and 4 digits.
The measurement range can be set automatically or manually. In auto range, the
instrument sets the range so that it can measure and display with maximum accuracy.
Probe settings are not affected, and statistical results are kept when the instrument
adjusts the range automatically. Auto range is available for all voltage and current mea-
surements, and also for resistance, capacitance and frequency measurements.
In "Meter" mode, a separate self-alignment of the meter inputs is available, see Chap-
ter 13.3, "Selfalignment", on page 283.
All remote commands for configuration and measuring are listed in Chapter 15.7, "Digi-
tal Multimeter (R&S RTH1002)", on page 382.
7.1.1 Connecting Test Leads (R&S RTH1002)
The R&S RTH1002 has an integrated digital multimeter (DMM) and test leads for multi-
meter measurements.
