Rigol DM3068 6 1/2 Digit Benchtop Digital Multimeter

Works great! Easy to use, I love my new bench meter. It's a bit on the large side, and I don't love the stand arm. Also the display is outdated LCD but the price is right and the performance is great! Sure you can get better 6.5 digit meters from other brands but they're twice the price of this unit. Also, this works great with LXI over lan or USB. I've found I prefer LAN. It does work with sigrok pulseview, although sometimes can be finickey to make the connection. I never have problems connecting with programs that I write myself so I think the problem must be with sigrok.

Have it almost a year and it's a really good quality digital multimeter, no problem at all so far. Use it a lot on the charging/discharging behavior study of ni-mh batteries, the read records of history is very useful. It can store 5000 readings with different elapsed time which allow you to recording a long period of time. Highly recommend. A little pricy, but it seems that will last for very long and I'm very happy with it.

High Resolution to a maximum of 2.400.000, Dual Display, Online Help inside meter, Trend View Trend development over several minutes can be captured directly, Capacitance from 1 pF to .1 farad

Excellent product for the price.

Great bench multimeter

Used the unit now for a while and I am pretty happy with it so far. Everything works as expected the only issues I have are regarding logging. I expected the unit to save results on a thumb-drive with full measurement resolution for long-term measurements. Unfortunately it only saves up to 5000 values and ends logging then. My expectation was that it saves at least until the block size of FAT32 is arrived.... If someone knows how to get more values for extended logging please let me know. From my tests over the last couple weeks I think it's not possible. The math functions do have an option to record a graph and show the min/max values over extended time, but it's only possible to save the graph as shown on the display in bmp format. I tested only the sample software and the communication over USB/LAN/RS-232 and this seems to work well. The Rigol UltraView software is not worth a penny and I did not find a good program for logging purposes. But it works well with LabView and and also the C++ sample works well, so if you plan to implement it into a existing setup or want to write your own software it will work.

The meter works fine but be warned they have eliminated the rear panel fuse for the 200mA current measurement inputs, even though it says on the front panel fused on rear panel. If you blow this fuse which is easy you will need to return for service or void warranty. The other kicker is that the internal fuse is not even the same type as the spare fuse that they still provide in the box. The logging function is useful but there is no direct way to clear history, you have to switch between another measurement and back. Also sometimes after completed the number of samples on a single trigger it would randomly start over again wiping out the measurements you have captured. I had to start over gain and lost a days work.

Von den Werten ist das Tischmultimeter RIGOL DM3068 ein gutes Messgerät. Nur leider mach bei dem gelieferten Gerät der Lüfter ein unangenehmes sirrendes Geräusch. Im Labor arbeite ich beruflich mit dem gleichen Gerät, diese sirrt nicht und ist viel leiser. Der Fehler hätte bei der Kalibrierung bzw. beim Test während der Produktion auffallen müssen. Das gelieferte Messgerät habe ich umgehend wieder eingepackt und zurück geschickt. RIGOL, vielen Dank für meinen Zusatzaufwand...

Purtroppo non riesco ad avere sorgenti di calibrazione con precisione superiore a quella del DMM ma i confronti che ho fatto con un altro multimetro HP da 5,5 digit sono uguali.

This bench DVM is very powerful and highly accurate. It seems to be very well build. It has several interesting functions like the trend plot, the distribution plot and the sensor function which allows to read directly in degrees PT100, TC... after a detailed parametrization; very useful ! I plan to use it in remote too by RS232. It has a very complete SCPI langage (even in Agilent or Fluke mode). Very satisfied.

A lot of explanations. A lot of features. Great buy.

Naja Aber den Kundendienst ?? die Uhrzeit lässt sich nicht einstellen und ich wollte darüber nur eine Info, die haben mich wohl vergessen schade!!! Nachtrag: Das Bedienfeld ist komplett ausgefallen also ist das Messgerät unbrauchbar ab in die Tonne !! Schade fürs Geld Besser Fluke kaufen
