Model DMM7512 7½ Digit Sampling Multimeter
Instrument Information
Introduction
This document describes the DMM7512 7½ Digit Multimeter instrument and how it differs from the Model
DMM7510 7½ Digit Multimeter instrument.
The DMM7512 is a no-front-panel version of the DMM7510 that has two DMM modules housed in one
enclosure. Except for the power switch, each module operates independently within the enclosure.

Customer documentation
The DMM7512 is very similar to the DMM7510. This document describes the differences between the
DMM7512 and the DMM7510. Other than the changes described in this document, the products are identical,
so you can use the DMM7510 documents as a resource.
For complete customer documentation, see the Model DMM7510 7½ Digit Multimeter Reference Manual and
other DMM7510 documentation.
To download the DMM7510 documentation:
1. Go to tek.com/product-support.
2. Enter the model number.
If you are using Test Script Builder, use the "Model DMM7510 Command Reference" of the TSB help for
information.
The DMM7510 documentation is available from the tek.com/keithley website in Adobe® Acrobat® PDF format
and includes:
▪ The Model DMM7510 Reference Manual: Includes advanced operation topics and maintenance
information. Programmers looking for a command reference, and users looking for an in-depth description
of the way the instrument works (including troubleshooting and optimization), should refer to the Reference
Manual.
▪ The Model DMM7510 User’s Manual: Provides application examples that you can use as a starting point
to create your own applications.
▪ The Model DMM7510 7½ Digit Graphical Sampling Multimeter Calibration and Adjustment Manual:
Provides calibration and adjustment information. Refer to Verification and adjustment (on page 11) for
detail.
▪ Accessories information: Documentation for accessories.
Capabilities and features
The DMM7512 has the following features:
▪ Ability to perform sensitive measurements on low-level signals
▪ Simplified trigger model with measure configuration lists
▪ USB-A connector for flash-drive support
▪ USB-B connector for communication, control, and data transfer
▪ Limit testing with a built-in comparator for pass/fail testing
▪ Digital I/O for stand-alone binning operations or interface to a component handler
▪ SCPI and Test Script Processor (TSP®) programming languages with remote interface ports (USB and
LAN)
▪ Built-in math expressions and user-defined expressions (using a remote interface)
▪ Filtering to reduce reading noise
▪ A trigger model that supports extensive triggering and synchronization schemes at hardware speeds
▪ LXI® Core Specification 1.4 compliance
▪ TSP-Link® system expansion interface that test system builders can use to connect multiple instruments in
a master and subordinate configuration
▪ Supports USB and ethernet local area network (LAN) connections

Differences between the DMM7510 and the DMM7512
The DMM7512 contains two digital multimeters that offer DMM7510 features in a configuration tailored to
rack-mount operation. Most DMM7510 functionality is available, with the following exceptions:
▪ Measure functions for AC voltage, AC current, frequency, period, and capacitance are not available.
▪ The maximum current measurement is 3 A.
▪ There is no front-panel display and there are no keys. You can access a virtual front panel using a remote
LAN interface. Refer to Accessing the virtual front panel (on page 9).
▪ Remote communications setup is different. See Setting up remote communications (on page 7).
▪ Connections for remote communications are on the front panel of the box. See Front-panel overview (on
page 5) for locations.
▪ GPIB functionality is not available.
▪ The Digital I/O connector for each module is oriented so that pin 1 is in the upper right. See Digital I/O port
(on page 6).
▪ The LAN RESET button for each module is on the front panel to the left of the TSP-Link connectors.
▪ Measurement connections are on the rear panel of the instrument only. There is no front terminal or rear
terminal selection. See Rear-panel overview (on page 6) for locations.
▪ The instrument dimensions are different and there are no handles or bumpers. See Dimensions (on
page 4).
▪ The USB VISA resource string for the DMM7512 is USB0::0x05e6::0x7512::[serial
number]::INSTR, where [serial number] is the serial number of the module.
▪ Warmup time for the DMM7512 is four hours.
▪ There is a single power switch and power input for both modules.
▪ Each DMM7512 has three serial numbers, one for the instrument and one for each module. The
instrument serial number is on a label on the front panel. This serial number is not available through a
remote interface. The serial numbers for the modules are on labels on the rear panel. The serial number
for a specific module can be accessed through the virtual front panel or by using the
localnode.serialno command over a remote interface.
▪ The default Command Set for the DMM7512 is TSP instead of SCPI.
Installing the DMM7512
The DMM7512 is intended for mounting in a rack only. For detailed instructions, refer to the documentation for
the Model 4299-13 Rack Mount Kit (part number 0713574XX).
Rack mounting the DMM7512 requires two people. Failure to recognize and observe standard
safety precautions could result in personal injury.
