Math
The multimeter provides these math functions: statistics, limits, dB/dBm and relative.
Statistics
Statistics calculates the min, average, max, span, standard deviation and number of
samples of readings during the measurement.
Press the front panel key, press the Statistics softkey, press the Statistics softkey
to select Show.
Remarks
The Span value is the Max minus the Min.
Press the Clear Readings softkey to clear reading memory and restart statistics.
Limits
Limit checking indicates how many samples have exceeded specified limits, and indicates
the signal testing result exceeded specified limits. The [AUX Output] connector at the
rear panel can be configured to output a pulse when the limits are exceeded (see page 39,
Output).
Press the front panel key, press the Limits softkey to access the limits menu.
Press the Limits softkey to enable or disable limits.
Use the High or Low softkey to specify the limits as high and low values. Press to switch
to the Center or Span softkey to specify the limits as a span around a center value. For
example, a Low limit of -5 V and a High limit of +10 V are equivalent to a Center of 2.5 V
and a Span of 15 V. When setting a parameter, press to move the cursor, press
to increase or decrease the value.
Press the Clear softkey to clear all current readings and restart limit checking.
Limit Indications: The red background color (shown below) indicates that the displayed
measurement exceeds the limits, and the multimeter beeps (if beeper enabled).
