Install the Batteries

2 U1273A/U1273AX Quick Start Guide

Install the Batteries

Your multimeter is powered by four 1.5 V AAA batteries

(included with the shipment).

1Turn the rotary switch to OFF and remove

the test leads from the terminals.

2Lift the tilt stand and loosen the screws

with a suitable Phillips screwdriver.

3Remove the battery cover and observe the

polarity markings.

4Insert the batteries and replace the battery cover and screws.

Turn On the Multimeter

To power ON your multimeter, turn the rotary switch from the

OFF position to any other position.

Auto Dim

By default, the multimeter’s Auto Dim function is enabled. The

multimeter’s backlight will dim automatically after 90 seconds

of inactivity. Press any button to cancel this effect and reset

the Auto Dim timer.

You may change how the multimeter’s backlight behavior

through the Setup menu. Refer to the User’s Guide for further

instructions.

NOTE

Your multimeter is capable of remote data logging. To use this

feature, you will need an IR-USB cable (U1173A, purchased

separately) and the Keysight GUI Data Logger Software (down-

loadable from www.keysight.com/find/hhTechLib).

Performing Measurements and Tests

Voltage measurements

The figure below highlights the primary functions allowing

voltage measurements in your multimeter.

Set up your multimeter as shown in the figure below to per-

form voltage measurements. When measuring DC voltage from

a mixed signal in DC measurement mode, ensure that the Filter

() is enabled.

1Press for more than 1 second to enter the multimeter’s

setup menu.

2Browse to Menu 6 >Filter, and press to edit the

value.

3Press or to enable the Filter.

Refer to the table below for the respective firmware ver-

sions.

4Press to save your changes.

5Press and hold until the multimeter restarts and returns

to normal operation. Turn the multimeter to DC Voltage

mode to verify that the LPF symbol is turned on.

LPF during AC measurements:

•Passing the measured signal through a LPF help blocks

unwanted voltages such as electronic noise.

•Use the LPF function to improve measurement on compos-

ite sine waves that are typically generated by inverters and

variable frequency motor drives.

CAUTIONCAUTION

To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, enable

the Filter ()to verify the presence of hazardous DC

voltages. Displayed DC voltages can be influenced by high

frequency AC components and must be filtered to assure

an accurate reading.

Press while performing AC

voltage measurements to pass the

measured signal through a low pass

filter.
