People inside Keysight are furiously watching it seems!

Sadly it doesn't look like the new meter has any of the cool trendplotting stuff in the 34465 does :(
It does data logging, but I can't even display it on the screen >:( Heck I can't even figure out how to save it to USB...
On the plus side, you can display voltage and current at the same time.

34450A has been around several years? I think the developers are rushed and after the product release, it's not a priority to fix anything nor is there any budget to do this because the project is "finished". The main reason I shy away from purchasing Keysight is they are far too lean on F/W maintenance. 34450A Firmware Update (Revision: 01.03-01.01) Release Date 2019-03-18
At least it has no cooling fan, just annoying leading zeros not blanked.
The new stuff, cooling vent on the side so stacking them seems to block that?

With the input probes just sitting there on my bench, I get overloading on the manual 1V range, and it alternates between overload and some random voltage, this is with fixed 10M input.
Also, I didn't realise last time that I had the ground probe in the wrong jack, it was in the sense jack. Guess they neede more visual differentiation there.
Anyway, in fast sampling mode I get the autorange issue cying the range relay at 5+ times per second, it makes a hell of a racket, again at 10M input.
I think they still have a few issues to iron out...

And with the leads shorted ?

No way that the big screen cannot plot the logged samples! :-- Isn't it capable for sure?!
Maybe it is how KS wants to sell BenchVue; "you need plots? buy the PC software >:D"
