2 Features and Functions
Digit Masking. The navigation keypad provides a shortcut to mask (change the
number of digits displayed) the reading on the main display.
• To enable digit masking for the selected measurement function, press or
. DIGIT MASK will be displayed, along with a list of choices (3.5, 4.5, 5.5,
6.5 and AUTO). Select the desired setting (use the keys) and press .
• 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 integration time setting and
display the new setting briefly. You can scroll through the entire range of integration
time settings:
Keysight 34410A, PLCs: 0.006, 0.02, 0.06, 0.2, 1, 2, 10 and 100
Keysight 34411A/L4411A, PLCs: 0.001, 0.002, 0.006, 0.02, 0.06, 0.2, 1, 2,
10, 100
• If the multimeter is configured to take the measurement using an aperture integration
time, press or to display APERTURE, with the current setting on the second
line (for example, 101.005mSEC). You can then use the navigation keypad to change
the aperture setting. The
and keys have their usual functions.
• If either the ac voltage or ac current function is selected, press or to increase
or decrease the bandwidth setting, and briefly display the new setting on the second
line. You can scroll through the three available bandwidth settings: 3 HZ : SLOW, 20
HZ : MEDIUM, or 200 HZ : FAST.
• If the frequency/period measurement function is selected, pressing or during
front panel measurement operations will increase or decrease the gate time setting,
and briefly display the new setting on the second display line (for example, if the
setting was 0.1 GATE TIME, the display will show 0.01 GATE TIME when you
press ). Repeated use of
or will scroll through the selection of gate time
settings in seconds (0.001 GATE TIME, 0.01 GATE TIME, 0.1 GATE TIME, and 1
GATE TIME).
