Square Wave Output
The U1253B true RMS OLED multimeter’s square wave
output can be used to generate a PWM (pulse width
modulation) output or provide a synchronous clock source
(baud rate generator). You can also use this function to
check and calibrate flow- meter displays, counters,
tachometers, oscilloscopes, frequency converters, frequency
transmitters, and other frequency input devices.
Selecting square wave output frequency
1 Set the rotary switch to . The default pulse width
is 0.8333 ms and default frequency is 600 Hz, as shown
on the primary and secondary displays respectively.
2 Press to switch between duty cycle and pulse width
for the primary display.
3 Press or to scroll through the available frequencies
(there are 29 frequencies to choose from).
