4.1.3 Resolution Setting (Digits)

Definition

Resolution is the number of digits a multimeter can measure. User can

select the resolution for a specific measurement. The choices for the

resolution setting are: fast 4.5, slow 4.5, fast 5.5, slow 5.5, fast 6.5 and

slow 6.5. For a higher accuracy, user can select 6.5 digit resolution. For

a faster measurement, user can select 4.5 digit resolution.

The resolution setting applies to all math operations under the selected

measurement function. The selected value is stored in a volatile memory

and the setting is only valid for the current measurement function. User

can select different resolution for different measurement function.

Default

The default value for the resolution is slow 5.5 digit and the default value

will be restored when the meter has been turned off or after a remote

interface reset. The user selected value for the resolution setting is

stored in a volatile memory and the setting is only valid for the current

measurement function. Please refer to Table 2-1 on page 24.

※ Note: The resolution setting for AC measurements is actually fixed at

6 ½ digits. When user selects a lower resolution, the meter will mask out

the extra digits. User’s selection of resolution for AC function will not

affect the actual speed or accuracy.

How to set the resolution

The resolution can be set either through the front panel or the remote

interface operation.
