UNI-T UT8805E software

Remote control and data logging for the UNI-T UT8805E multimeter, on Windows, Linux and macOS - with the same panel BenchMesh uses for every multimeter.

Awaiting confirmation

Status

Very likely. Support for the UNI-T UT8805E was written from UNI-T’s programming manual and follows the same engine as the bench-tested instruments, but nobody has confirmed it on a real UT8805E yet. If you own one, connecting it once and reporting the result moves it to Community-confirmed.

Discovered through the portmapper, no port to enter. Enter the instrument’s IP address.

Notes

  • To confirm on first contactLAN works through VXI-11 (no raw socket): supported, not yet confirmed on hardware.

Connect it, press Detect, try the controls - then tell us how it went. Every confirmation moves a model from “Awaiting” to “Community-confirmed” for everyone.

Questions

Does BenchMesh work with the UNI-T UT8805E?
Very likely. Support for the UNI-T UT8805E was written from UNI-T’s programming manual and follows the same engine as the bench-tested instruments, but nobody has confirmed it on a real UT8805E yet. If you own one, connecting it once and reporting the result moves it to Community-confirmed.
How do I connect the UT8805E to my PC?
Over USB-serial / RS-232 or USB-TMC or LAN (VXI-11 / LXI). 9600 baud, 8N1. Plug in the USB cable (or a USB-RS-232 adapter); BenchMesh finds the port. Then press Detect in BenchMesh: it identifies the multimeter by its reply and adds it to the bench.
What can I control on the UT8805E?
Multimeter: set mode, range, rate, temp scale; read meas, mode, overload, range.
Can I log UT8805E measurements to CSV?
Yes. Right-click any reading to add it to a recording; every instrument on the bench is sampled on one shared timeline and exported as one CSV.
Is BenchMesh free?
Yes. BenchMesh is free and open source, for Windows, Linux and macOS, and works offline.
