In this video I demonstrate how some multimeters with a Hi Res (high resolution) mode round the last digit when switching back to a low resolution mode. In essence they just "hide" the last digit which is not the correct way they should handle this.

Equipment used:

* Brymen TBM867 / BM867
* ISO-Tech IDM207
* Fluke 87-V

Thanks to Comtest for the loan of the Fluke 87-V: www.comtest.co.za
