• Masking digits only affects what is displayed. It does not affect
measurement speed or accuracy.
Integration Time (Bandwidth, Gate Time). Four measurement functions allow
you to select the integration time: dc voltage, dc current, resistance, and
temperature. The ac voltage and ac current measurements allow you to select
the ac signal filter (bandwidth). The frequency/period function allows you to
select gate time. The navigation keypad provides a shortcut for quickly
changing these settings.
• If the multimeter is configured to take the measurement using an
integration time in NPLCs, press or to increase or decrease the
