Dual display and versatile graphical capabilities
The 8845A/8846A feature a unique dual
display that allows you to measure two different parameters of the same
signal from one test connection. To reveal signal quality issues like
drift, intermittants and stability, view data as a real time trend plot
or histogram, with the unique analyze mode. You won’t find graphical
display capabilities like these on any other instrument in this class.
Perform 4-wire measurement with only two leads
Patented split terminal jacks for the 2
x 4 ohms function allow you to perform 4-wire measurements using only
two leads instead of four. A special test lead accessory is available
to enable you to establish the connection. You get excellent resolution
and accuracy plus the convenience and ease of using a single pair of
leads.
Multiple connectors give you maximum flexibility
Choose from several interfaces to
connect the 8845A/8846A to a personal computer: serial, IEEE-488, and
Ethernet come standard on both models. A USB device port is included on
the 8846A meter for convenient data transfer to and from a PC via a
portable USB storage device.
FlukeView® Software and drivers add PC power and application compatibility.
FlukeView Forms increases the power of
your Fluke tool by enabling you to document, store and analyze
individual readings or series of measurements, then convert them into

programming commands of the Fluke 45 and Agilent 34401. Emulation
shortens the learning curve and makes it easy to fit the 8845A or 8846A
into existing test systems.
