AC Notes
1. 20 % overrange except 1% on 300V and 3.33% on 3A. Default resolution is 5-½ digits;
maximum useable resolution is 6-½ with 7-½ digits programmable.
2. Specification are for SLOW mode and sinewave inputs >5% of range. SLOW and MED are
multi-sample A/D conversions. FAST is dmm.detectorbandwidth=300 with dmm.nplc=1.0
.
3. Applies to 0qC - 18qC and 28qC - 50qC.
4. Specified for square wave inputs. Input signal must be >10% of ACV range. If input
is<20mV on the 100mV range then the frequency must be >10Hz. For sinewave inputs,
frequency must be >100Hz.
5. Applies to non-sinewave inputs 5Hz.
6. For 1kohm unbalance in LO lead.
7. Shunt resistance guaranteed by design.
8. For Model 3721, 1mA ACI, add 0.05% to “of reading” uncertainty from 250Hz o 10kHz.
