The 2831E and 5491B are programmable via
USB and RS232 (5491B only) interface using
industry standard SCPI commands. Users can

able from the B&K website), which supports front
panel emulation and data logging of
measurement results.

The limit operation lets you set and control the
values that determine a HI / IN / LO status of
subsequent measurements. The meter can be
configured to emit an audible alarm when
readings are outside of the configured limit.

These meters offer a dual display allowing
multiple measurements to be conveniently
displayed at once. The display values could be
two different measurements or one measurement
expressed in different units. For example, you can
simultaneously read an AC voltage and a
frequency value or a DC voltage value expressed
in volts and in dB.
