The GW Instek GDM-8342GPIB is a Digital Bench Multimeter with a Factory Installed GPIB Interface. This multimeter has exceptional features that include 50,000 counts, VFD dual-display, 0.02% basic DC voltage accuracy and a USB protocol connector to provide users with measurement precision, lucid data observation, and the convenience to connect to a PC.
The GDM-8342GPIB not only supports the fundamental measurement items provided by general multimeters, but is also equipped with capacitance and temperature measurement functions. It provides many auxiliary functions to meet the measurement requirements for manufacturing process tests, educational experiments and testing facilities.
With respect to storing and retrieving data, the GDM-8342GPIB has two methods to offer: first, the USB flash drive storage function; operating alone without connecting with a computer; second, USB interface (virtual COM port) and the GPIB interface (supplied) for automatic measurement system users to conveniently save and retrieve data.
The multimeter has three selectable measurement speeds, fast, medium and slow. For instance, the DC voltage measurement can reach 40 readings per second on the fast mode, which can maximise the effectiveness of each measurement.
The multimeter provides twelve major measurement items including AC voltage/current, DC voltage/current, AC+DC voltage/current, two-wired resistance, capacitance, frequency/ period, diode and continuity beeper test. Many auxiliary functions, such as maximum/minimum values, reading hold, relative values, dB, dBm, algorithms (MX+B, 1/X, Ref%) and comparison, are designed to reinforce the major measurement items to satisfy users' daily working requirements.
