Common  mode  voltage  is voltage present on both 
the  COM  and VOLTAGE input terminals of a DMM, 
with  respect  to  ground.  CMRR  is  the  DMM's  ability 
to  reject  common  mode  voltage  effect  that  can 
cause  digit  rolling  or  offset  in  voltage  measure-
ments.    This  series  has  a  CMRR  specifications  of 
>  80dB  at  DC  to  60Hz  in  ACV  function;  and 
>  120dB  at  DC,  50  and  60Hz  in  DCV  function.    If 
neither NMRR nor CMRR specification is specified, 
a DMM's performance will be uncertain.

NMRR  is  the  DMM's  ability to reject unwanted AC 
noise  effect  that    can  cause  inaccurate  DC 
measurements.  NMRR    is  typically  specified  in 
terms  of  dB  (decibel).  This  series  has  a  NMRR 
specification of > 60dB at 50  and 60Hz, which is a 
good  and    definite  ability  to  reject  the  effect  of 
noise when making DC measurements.

NMRR (Normal Mode Rejection Ratio)

CMRR (Commaon Mode Rejection Ratio)

The analog bar graph provides a visual indication of 
measurement  like  a  traditional  analog  meter 
needle.  It  is  excellent  in  detecting  faulty  contacts, 
identifying  potentiometer  clicks,  and  indicating 
signal  spikes  during  adjustments.    Analog  bar-
graph is not available in AC+DC True RMS Voltage 
& Current modes.

CAUTION

Before and after hazardous voltage measurements,

test  the  voltage  function  on a known source such

as    line    voltage    to    determine   proper   meter
