Advanced Measurement Overview

Background

Advanced measurement mainly refers to the type of

measurement which uses the result obtained by one of

the basic measurements: ACV, DCV, ACI, DCI, 2/4W,

Diode/Continuity, Frequency/Period, and Temperature.

Refresh Rate

Background

Refresh rate defines how frequently the GDM-8261
captures and updates measurement data. A faster refresh

rate yields a lower accuracy and resolution. A slower

refresh rate yields a higher accuracy and resolution.

Consider these tradeoffs when selecting the refresh rate.
For DC measurements, the frequency of the refresh rate

depends on the rate settings (S, M, F) and the ADC speed

settings (Accurate, Quick) (page 90 ).
For AC measurements, the refresh rate (S, M, F) is
directly tied to the AC bandwidth settings (page 84).
For further details, please see the specifications.
