Measuring Frequency

Frequency is the number of cycles a signal completes
each second. The meter measures the frequency of a
voltage or current signal by counting the number of times
the signal crosses a threshold level each second.

Figure 3-13 highlights the function selections that allow
frequency measurement.

To measure frequency, select an appropriate function,
connect the meter signal source, and press

N

.

The meter autoranges to one of four frequency ranges:
500.00 Hz, 5.0000 kHz, 50.000 kHz, and 999.99 kHz.
Figure 3-14 shows a typical frequency display.
