Specifications
Accuracy is specified for a period of one year after calibration, at 18°C to 28°C (64°F to 82°F) with relative humidity to 90%.
AC conversions are ac-coupled, average responding, and calibrated to the rms value of a sine wave input. Accuracy speci-
fications are given as:
±([% of reading] + [number of least significant digits])
