I always thought that if it is they would say because it is a feature, but it is not mentioned in the manual.
However, with my generator which is pretty accurate on P-P, when I do not d isturb the level, on square I set it to 10 volts and switch to sine it read s something like 6.38.
Seems to indicate that it is, but if so I am sure they would tout it in the manual and all other things relevant to the unit.
If it is peak reading, there would have to be something wrong. I just looke d and the generator is set to about 4,250 Hz.
Is this thing TRMS or not ?
I figured this question better here than in SEB or SER. Half of them people do not understand what TRMS is, let alone to test it. I should NOT see a d ifference in the sine and square if it is not TRMS, correct ?
If it is great, if it isn't that is OK. I like it anyway, like my 8050a whi ch IS TRMS because IO find the red LED display easier to read, especially a t a distance.
I could adopt it or sell it, whaddya think ? I know it is old but I do not care as long as it is accurate. With the 6.37 instead of 707 it could be a bit out of calibration, but I can handle that. My buddy has some standards traceable to the NBS a couple of years ago.
Does I or doesn't I ?
