    Why is the remote control failing on my Agilent Technologies Multimeter?
    • C
      Christopher PrestonAug 18, 2025
      If you are experiencing a remote control failure with your Agilent Technologies Multimeter, make sure the Agilent logo on the IR-USB cable is facing up. Also, verify the baud rate, parity, data bit, and stop bit settings in the Setup mode (default is 9600, None, 8, and 1). Finally, ensure the required driver for IR-USB is installed.
