Autozero OFF Operation
Following instrument warm-up at calibration temperature ±1 °C
and < 10 minutes, add 0.0002% range additional error + 5 V.
Settling Consideration
Reading settling times are affected by source impedance, low
dielectric absorption characteristics, and input signal changes.
[1] Isolation voltage (ch-ch, ch-earth) 300 VDC, AC rms
[2] For 1 k unbalance in LO lead
[3] For power line frequency ±0.1%
[4] For power line frequency ±1%, use 80 dB
For power line frequency ±3%, use 60 dB
[5] Reading speeds for 60 Hz and (50 Hz) operation;
autozero OFF
[6] 6½ digits=22 bits, 5½ digits=18 bits, 4½ digits=15 bits
[7] Add 20 V for DCV, 4 A for DCI, or 20 m for
resistance
[8] For fixed function and range, readings to memory,
scaling and alarms off, autozero OFF
