1.3    DL-1060 Function Introduction 

For users to become familiar with the DL-1060 DMM, we will give a brief introduction 
to  the  basic  operations  of  DL-1060  DMM.  There  are  three  major  parts  of  DL-1060: 

(1.3.1) the front panel, (1.3.2) the display, and (1.3.3) the rear panel. 

We will 

discuss each of them in the following sections. 

 

1.3.1    The Front Panel 

There  are  different  buttons  and  terminals  on  the  front  panel.  They  are  shown  in 

Figure 1-26
