content: Hi,i am planing to buy a fluke 91 (only one i can find right now) scopemeter. On the manual it saidATTENTIONThe scope mode measurements are not vaild for the Fluke 91 and 92.Does this mean when on scope mode i can not get even basic measurements like Hertz?Thanks in advance Alex.

content: It appears to me that the 91 and 92 don't support measurements in Scope Mode, only Dual Display mode. If you look at Chapter 4, Dual Display, there is no such limitation mentioned for any of the included models. So, you'll just have to use Dual Display mode with the 91.

content: Yeah, it was a bit odd. It would probably instantly make sense once you actually used the meter. Less so reading it in isolation. That other chapter helped clarify things a bit. However, as I've never used any of those scope meters, I could still have misinterpreted.In any case, if you do get it, do post a follow up for future visitors to the thread.Welcome to the forum!

content: Maybe give a clue in the title what the thread is about too buddy.Then people who may have an answer for you are more likely to stop in and reply. I normally skip past random titles like this one. I know others do too.Maybe just feeling more nosey todayHope you enjoy your new meter and have lots of fun using it

I'm waiting on one of those DER EE DE-5000 meters arriving on a slow boat from JapanHope both our meters arrive sooner than later!Have you tried YouTube for videos on your scope meter? May get some good info there too??
