Using the LPF (Low Pass Filter) Function for AC+DC 
measurements
Your multimeter is equipped with an AC low pass filter to 
help reduce unwanted electronic noise when measuring a 
mixed signal.
1 Enable the LPF (You may refer to “Enabling and disabling 
the Filter” on page 131).
2 Rotate the multimeter’s rotary switch to  .
3 Your multimeter continues measuring in the AC+DC mode, 
but now the signal diverts through a filter that blocks 
unwanted voltages above 1 kHz
