Highest sampling rate 1MS/s (simultaneous sampling in 2 channels)
Accuracy DC amplitude: ±0.4% of full scale (with filter 5Hz), zero position: ±0.1% of full scale (with filter 5Hz, after zero adjustment)
RMS measurement RMS amplitude accuracy: ±1% of full scale (DC, 20Hz to 1kHz), ±3% of full scale (1kHz to 100kHz), response time: SLOW 5s (rise time from 0 to 90% of full scale), MID 800ms (rise time from 0 to 90% of full scale), FAST 100ms (rise time from 0 to 90% of full scale), crest factor: 2
Frequency characteristics DC to 400kHz ±3dB, (with AC coupling: 7Hz to 400kHz ±3dB)
