Dual Measurement Overview
The dual measurement mode allows you to use the 2nd display to
show another item, thus viewing two different measurement
results at once.
When the multimeter is used in dual measurement mode, both
displays are updated from either a single measurement or from two
separate measurements. If the primary and secondary
measurement modes have the same range, rate and rely on the
same fundamental measurement, then a single measurement is
taken for both displays; such as ACV and frequency/period
measurements. If the primary and secondary displays use different
measurement functions, ranges or rates, then separate
measurements will be taken for each display. For example, ACV
and DCV measurements.
Most of the basic measurement functions, except for
resistance/continuity can be used in the dual measurement mode.
