Units
Readings can be displayed using engineering (ENG) units (i.e., 1.236 m
Α
) or scientific
(SCI) notation (i.e., 1.236E-03
Α
). To change units, press the MENU key, select UNITS,
then press ENTER. Select ENG or SCI, then press ENTER.
NOTE
The units setting can only be changed from the front panel (no remote
operation). Scientific notation provides more resolution on small values than
engineering units.
Digits
The DIGITS key sets display resolution for Model 6485/6487. Display resolution can be set
from 3 to 6 digits. This single global setting affects display resolution for all measurement
ranges. To set display resolution, press (and release) the DIGITS key until the desired num-
ber of digits is displayed.
NOTE
For the Model 6487, the voltage source value will not be displayed in the 6 digit
display mode.
