■ Minimum measurable value (or threshold))
This the smallest measurable value. also the value measurement count quantification unit,
usually called the "unit".
■ Root-mean-square value signal
This the value the (positive) signal producing the same heating when passes through specified
resistance. defined minimum measurable value and a
maximum measurable value
■ Rated calibre
An instrument's calibre the value the quantity measured which corresponds the upper limit the
measurement range. For instrument providing good conversion linearity, may equal the
resolution.

A few definitions:
■ Measurement range
This represents the limits within which the digital instrument performs specified that the results are not subject
to rate error which higher than the maximum tolerated.
A TRMS (AC+DC) "true root-mean-square" multimeter capable measuring the RMS value signals,
whatever their shape and whether they include component not.
■ Resolution
This the smallest measurable difference value
