Rohde & Schwarz presents the new R&S UDS digital multimeter series. The compact instruments can display three measurements simultaneously and offer versatile measurement functions and various interfaces for remote control. Models are available with a digit resolution of 5 ½ as well as 6 ½, the latter providing a basic DC accuracy of 0.0075 percent. The R&S UDS series replaces the established R&S HMC8012 digital multimeter, offering more accuracy and an updated intuitive user interface for smooth and efficient testing.

The new R&S UDS digital multimeters from Rohde & Schwarz offer a versatile range of testing capabilities, making them ideal for troubleshooting, component testing, and system validation applications, as well as for teaching labs in education. Additionally, they are well-suited for production environments, where reliability and accuracy are paramount. With voltage ranges extending up to 1000 V DC and 750 V AC and a current capacity of 10 A, these multimeters provide a comprehensive solution for a wide range of measurement tasks. They come with an easy-to-use interface and a 3.5” OVGA color display for excellent readability. The large screen can simultaneously display up to three measurement values, streamlining test workflows and enhancing productivity.
Key Facts
- Number of digits: 5.5 or 6.5
- True RMS measurement, AC, AC + DC
- Simultaneous display of three measurements, e.g. DC, AC and statistics
- Measurement and mathematical functions
- Long-term data logging in CSV format via USB flash drive

Advanced Measurement Capabilities
In addition to twelve standard measurement functions, the multimeters feature built-in statistical and mathematical functions, making them suitable for a wide range of applications, including two-wire and four-wire measurements, as well as limit testing.
For remote control, the new multimeters offer a variety of interfaces, including USB, IEEE-488 (GPIB) for SCPI-based commands, and LAN (Ethernet). This enables seamless integration of the R&S UDS digital multimeter into any test setup or production line, providing unparalleled flexibility and convenience.
As the well-established R&S HMC8012 digital multimeter is being phased out, the new R&S®UDS series will take its place. The instruments are part of the R&S Essentials portfolio, available from Rohde & Schwarz and selected distribution channel partners.
