DM3068 | 6 ½ Digit Digital Multimeter
Selection Guide
The Model DM3068 DMM gives reliable, cost effective, full DMM capabilities measuring DCV, ACV, DCI, ACI, Resistance (2 & 4 Wire), Capacitance, Diode Test, Frequency, and Temperature. These DMMs are designed for simple and efficient bench top use, but include software options for datalogging and remote programming from almost any interface. The DM3068 is a great bench tool for high performance, reliable measurements, but also a new high speed data acquisition option for many measurement challenges.
- True 6 ½ digit resolution
- Minimum Integration Time is 0.006 PLC for more than 8,000 measurements per second
- True-RMS AC Voltage & Current measurements
- View real time measurement trending or histograms from the front panel
- Built-in comprehensive configurations for a variety of temperature sensors
- GPIB, USB, RS-232, and LXI-C (Ethernet) Connectivity

How do I achieve the maximum date rates with a DM3068? The fastest data rates for the DM3068 can be attained by using the attached procedure. We give the remote commands for computer control as well as front panel instructions. 
DM3068 Calibration Certificate Here is a sample of a calibration certificate for the DM3068 Digital Multimeter. DM3068 Packing list Here is a sample of the DM3068 Digital Multimeter packing list. How do I access the DM3068 Internal Web Page control? The DM3068 has an internal webpage that will allow control over ethernet. This allows the user to change measurement functions and set various parameters remotely. It will also allow the user to view the readings made by the instrument on a web display. How do I find the serial number and firmware revision of my DM3058 or DM3068? Follow the attached PDF instructions to determine the revision information for your DMM. Are your products UL or CSA listed? At this time, many of our products are C TUV USA listed. Per the TUV website, http://www.tuvasi.com/en/tests-and-analysis/information-about-nrtl-tests.htmlThe C TUV US mark is recognized as the equivalent and direct replacement to the UL and CSA m When I plug in my instrument via USB, I get a Windows Page Fault error ( Blue Screen of Death / BSoD ). There is a known issue with the IVI VISA Shared components version.See attached document for more details. Software Compatibility The attached PDF file describes Windows 7 Compatibility Issues. Help File Error: Navigation to web page cancelled. Some instrument manuals are compiled HTML files with extensions ending in .CHM. On occasion, they have shown Navigation to web page cancelled. Here are some steps to help solve that error. Where do I find instrument drivers for LabVIEW? http://www.ni.com/downloads/idnet/ DM3058 DM3068 RS-232 communications Both DMM's require a Null Modem Cable connection.Each line should terminate in a carriage return followed by a line feed (/r/n). Rigol Scopes VISA Driver Installation / Rigol’s UltraScope software not detect Rigol scope attached to PC via USB OR User receives Run Time Error '48': File not found VISA32.DLL error message when UltraScope is launched. The user either has not installed the latest available National Instruments VISA Runtime engine or the version of National Instrument’s VISA Runtime Engine included on the CD that the user installed is outdated.In both cases, the recommended solution VISA Runtime for Apple OS X To use a VISA compatible Rigol instrument under Apple OS X, the user must install National Instruments VISA run-time engine for OS XAs of this writing the latest OS X VISA run-time engine from National Instruments is NI-VISA 5.0NI-VISA 5.0 can be DMM firmware upgrade procedure. We have attached the firmware upgrade procedure for Rigol DMM's. Bits vs. dBs Here are instructions on converting bits of resolution to dBs. My Instrument IVI Driver does not appear in the LabVIEW tools palette. You may need to manually find and convert the IVI driver. See attachment for more details. The instrument not recognized over the USB bus In some cases, an instrument may not be recognized over the USB bus. Here are some troubleshooting hints to help. -
