Measurement Conditions
Voltage and Current Measurement Modes (For procedures, see
section 2.1)
You can select one of the following three voltage measurement modes: RMS, MEAN (VOLTAGE
MEAN), and DC.
You can select one of the following two current measurement modes: RMS and DC.
RMS (True RMS)
The true voltage or current rms value.

MEAN (VOLTAGE MEAN, rectified mean value calibrated to the
rms value)
One period of the voltage is rectified and the resulting average is multiplied by the factor that would
yield the true rms value if the applied signal were a sine wave. When sine waves are measured, the
values obtained in this mode are the same as those obtained in RMS mode. The values differ from
those obtained in RMS mode when distorted waves or DC waves are measured.

DC (Linear average)
The average of one period of the voltage or current. This mode is useful for determining the average
value of a DC input signal or the value of a DC signal that is superimposed on an AC signal.
