Title: Fluke 8846A multimeter SPCI command this to control autozero
Post by: Kiriakos GR on January 16, 2026, 05:38:48 PM
TsDMMViewer Data Logger for FLUKE 884xA, this includes five user programmable functions.

Fluke 8845/8846 - they do aloud autozero control, but due SPCI command only (RS232 port).

Disable autozero = :SYST:AZER 0
Enable autozero = :SYST:AZER ON   
Autozero Once  = :SYST:AZER 1

In theory , by activating Autozero Once, at the multimeter, due TsDMMViewer software and it special 8845/8846 control panel, this can increase the measurement speed (throughput).

Fluke 8845/8846 with 400mA current input = newer hardware, they can deliver with autozero enabled, approximately 20 measurements per second.
In theory, with preset of autozero once DMM Hardware this will double it output.  ;)
