The GDM-8342 bench-top DMM by GW Instek is a high precision digital multimeter with an accuracy of 0.02% on DC-voltages. These multimeters offer a broad functionality at an affordable price.
The meters offer a variable measurement frequency. This means that the meter can be set to measure the required value from 5 times a second up to 40 times a second. The meters allow for two measurements to be done simultaneously and displayed on each of the 50.000 count displays.
The GDM-8342 can store data both on a USB stick connected through the USB port in the front, or via the USB port in the back of the device, directly onto a computer. Using a memory stick the meter can be used to log data directly without having to use a computer. In the storage menu there are a couple of settings available, as start time or measurement duration and interval. The measurements are stored in a CSV file and can easily be opened in for example Matlab or Excel.
