Dot matrix display is good but has to have good contrast. The display on the 287/289 contrast is quite bad. I used the 189/287/289 with the IR3000FC adapter. It works good.

You and I clearly have different meanings of the word “many”, because right now, just 5 of the 67 Fluke job listings are in Poland.
One of the job listings says this:
--- Quote ---Fluke in Poland is growing - we are setting up a new R&D team in Wroclaw deliver our newest products. This is a rare opportunity to build a new team within already established environment.
As a System Engineer, you collaborate with a team of Mechanical, Optical, Electrical, Software and Manufacturing Engineers to design these cores, translating designs into high performance products for our customers. Applications range from precision analog measurement to image processing to RF systems. You will have opportunities to specialize in a subject area, or broadly cover many technologies.
--- End quote ---
So it sounds to me like multimeters is probably not what they’re doing in Poland.
Another listing says:
--- Quote ---Fluke Engineering in Poland is established and performing but still growing. We are involved in multiple New Product Introductions and Sustaining programs across Fluke’s wide portfolio. This is a unique opportunity to join an engaged team and contribute to the development of the world’s most recognized measurement products.
As a Senior Hardware Engineer, you will be developing, improving, and maintaining electronics designs of Fluke meters, testers or calibrators. As part of a multi-functional project team, you will design and analyze critical analog circuits for customer applications. You will have opportunities to specialize in a subject area, but also may be exposed to many other technologies.

(Beyond those 5 jobs, Fortive has two HR positions open in Poland.)

That's fair - I was looking at engineering jobs at Fluke - with 5 out of 12 in Poland (all dev) , 2 test roles / 1 dev role / 1 mfg role in Everett, 1 dev in UK, 1 mfg in Malaysia and 1 dev in India. This doesn't change your point; just trying to set why I said "many."
That second job does call out meters specifically - though as part of a long list.

Also (I had not checked this before), below are items from a Google search for "Fluke Poland LinkedIn."
Nothing wrong with Poland ( Or India, China, Malaysia, etc) - but it feels like when the design team changes, the products tend to change.

I know what it says, since I do this crazy thing called “reading it before posting it”. ;)
However, your original comment, to which I was replying, said “DMMs”. I then used the word “multimeters”. The job listing says “meters”. And while all DMMs are multimeters, and all multimeters are meters, not all meters are DMMs. Fluke makes a whole stable of other meters. So we can’t necessarily infer from the job listing that they will do multimeter development in Poland.

Good Morning BeBuLamar, you said the IR3000FC worked with your Fluke 189. The specifications only say that it works with the 287, 289 and 789. Did it work just as well with the 189 as with the 289. Thank you for your time. :-+
