The meter window contains the meter, an instrument that displays readings in real time in any of the following units:
DC volts
AC volts
dB
Hz
If you add one or more custom ranges, the meter can also display values in some other units, for example pressure or acceleration.
The meter window comes in two forms. The simplest form displays a single number and an optional bar graph. The number is one parameter measured on one channel, for example AC volts on channel A.
The more advanced form of meter window displays a set of numbers. These can be a selection of parameters from a selection of channels. An asterisk indicates the active parameter.
Note: When you use the oscilloscope in standard or chart recorder mode, with a timebase of less than 200 ms/div, meter readings are not updated.
