| 20090128124 | INFORMATION DISPLAY FOR DIGITAL MULTIMETER - A digital multimeter provides information regarding measurements shown on a display of the multimeter, and available functions of the multimeter. The information typically relates to a current context of the multimeter. The context may include a current mode or other setting of the multimeter. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090128125 | MINI-MEASUREMENT DISPLAY FOR DIGITAL MULTIMETER - A digital multimeter displays a miniature version of a live actual reading of the multimeter. The miniature version typically appears after a larger version of the live actual reading is displaced by other display elements. The miniature version of the live actual reading may be accompanied by a warning icon or other graphical symbol to alert a user of a potentially hazardous electrical condition. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090128126 | ROTARY SWITCH MEMORY FOR DIGITAL MULTIMETER - A digital multimeter comprises a rotary switch and a rotary switch memory. The rotary switch can be moved between a plurality of positions to change the function performed by the digital multimeter. When the rotary switch is in a particular position, a user can change the function currently associated with that position from a default function to a non-default function. Thereafter, when the user moves the rotary switch away from the particular and then subsequently moves the position back to the particular position, the multimeter resumes the non-default function without requiring further user-input. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090128128 | AUTOMATIC CAPTURE AND STORAGE OF MEASUREMENTS IN DIGITAL MULTIMETER - A digital multimeter includes an auto-save component configured to automatically capture and save a sequence of measurements. The auto-save component detects when a measurement becomes stable and upon determining that the measurement has become stable, captures and saves the measurement in a memory of the digital multimeter. The multimeter may additionally include an auto-naming component for automatically assigning a name to each measurement in the sequence, and an auto-hold component for temporarily freezing the display of the stable measurements in the multimeter. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090140721 | DIGITAL MULTIMETER HAVING IMPROVED RECORDING FUNCTIONALITY - A digital multimeter automatically records measurements of electrical or physical parameters. The multimeter may record the measurements based on events such as the passage of time, fluctuations or deviations in the measurements, or user inputs. In some examples, the digital multimeter operates at a reduced power setting during automatic recording operations. | 06-04-2009 |
