2.2.4.1 The Measurement
In Power mode
The Current value is updated at 3Hz.
When you change the scale, the acquisition and all display modes stop for a few milliseconds.
In Energy mode
The Current value is updated at 3Hz. But all data in the statistics are updated at up to 1 kHz in
real time. Single shot measurement is always Valid. When you change the scale you might have
a false measurement but the next measurement is ac
curate. There is no need for “Zero offset” in
energy mode because the M-LINK compensates for an analog drift as long as the voltage is in
range of the analog to digital converter.
