attempt is reported by a low-pitched beep. Only the SETUP menu can still be opened. The acquisition in progress must be
stopped (press MEM) to modify a parameter, a function, or a configuration.

Range key : Management of ranges
Three operating modes can be accessed by the key:
:
-
the AUTO mode
[F1]
-
the AUTO Pk mode
[F2]
-
the MANUEL mode
[F3]
When a measurement is being acquired, the AUTO mode is active as default and
range selection is managed automatically by the multimeter.
To limit the risk of measurement instability, the 100mV range is not managed in the
AUTO
mode, but only in the
MANUAL
mode.
In the AUTO PEAK mode, changes of range occur only when the acquisition of a
higher peak makes a higher range necessary.
The AUTO PEAK mode is available only on AC and AC+DC measurements in V and
A. It avoids the untimely overshoot of the peak factor specified for the instrument.
When the MANUAL mode is selected and it is valid for the function concerned,
the
keys of the navigator allow a change of the measurement range.
Measurements concerned: voltage, current (in series or clamp), resistance, capacitance
Communication interfaces
4.3.
The multimeter can communicate with a PC, making it possible:
-
to update the embedded software
Connect the multimeter to the computer via the USB link and run the application
downloaded from the CHAUVIN ARNOUX web site.
-
to calibrate the multimeter using the optional SX-MTX 329X calibration software (HX0059B).
-
to program using Labview and Labwindows
-
to recover the data or program the device using the SX-DMM software (USB, Bluetooth)
The multimeter (Bluetooth version)communicates with smartphones and tablets, making it possible:
-
to track and display the history of measurements via the ASYC IV DMM application, which can be downloaded free from
Google Play Store.
Your multimeter includes:
-
an isolated optical USB link (type HX0056Z)
-
SX-DMM processing software
-
Labview and Labwindows drivers to program the devices.
It is also possible to program the instrument using the SCPI or MODBUS protocol.
