Keithley DAQ6510 Data Acquisition and Logging, Multimeter System

The Keithley DAQ6510 is a 6.5-digit digital multimeter integrated with a flexible data acquisition and logging system, featuring a 5-inch multi-touch capacitive touchscreen for operator control. The instrument supports up to 80 test channels through 2 module slots accommodating 12 different plug-in module types, enabling high-accuracy voltage, current, resistance, temperature, and frequency measurements in automated test environments. On-device test script execution and storage of millions of readings eliminate external logging dependencies.
