The National Instruments NI4060 is a 5.5-digit digital multimeter engineered for automated test systems, laboratory environments, and portable field measurements. It delivers precise DC and AC voltage and current measurements, resistance characterization across seven decades, and diode testing—all with True-rms AC capability and reading rates up to 60 readings per second.
