Just got a new Multimeter with PC Interface
 
This thing is sweet! Hooks up to my laptop and graphs data in real time to my computer screen. I can study the falloff of different battery motor combiniations and stuff. If anyone needs me to check something out, let me know.

Thats a steal! :)

If you dont mind how may reading per second can it take?

joeNuggetz 10-19-2002 09:46 PM

Just 1. Which is good enough for me. I wish I could take more. You can set up the software to sample every 2 secons, 5 seconds, 1 minutes, etc.

Be nice if it could do somthing faster but 2 seconds or more is not bad! :)

Maybe I wasnt clear, but the meter does do 1 sample per second.

I'm a newbie to electronics. I'm sure alot of us zip zap fans out there are as well. My question is when using your multimeter where do you put the positive and negative leads to measure battery current or the output of power from the pcb and what setting on the multimeter should be selected. Thanks if any of you guys can answer or even suggest a site for newbies on how to use a multimeter. This is one of the best overall forums I've ever been apart of. Thanks TinyRC!!!!!!!
