A DMM will jump around if the leads are floating. I've used scores of DMMs over the years, from cheap ones to ones costing in the thousands, and many Flukes. They've all acted the same.
It is actually useful. It indicates to you that you are not making contact with anything conductive. Yes, if you are measuring a DC voltage then they should be steady. Unless the load is very dynamic. Even the best of supplies are not completely stable under highly varying loads. -- regalma1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ regalma1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6658 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90742 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
