+- add support for Victor (RuoShui) 86B/C/D/E handheld DMMs (read only)
+
+This release adds a whole new device class to Rusty Meter.
+These Victor DMMs can be read out, but due to their nature
+with a twist knob for the modes they can only be read out
+and not remote controlled.

+on the work of @TheHWCave to turn your OWON XDM or Victor multimeter into a PC-based powerhouse
 with neat graphing, recording, using it on stream etc.
 
 Meters which have been confirmed working already:
 
-- XDM1041
-- XDM1241
-- XDM2041 (except 4W resistance, not yet implemented)
+- Owon XDM1041

 Looking for testers for the XDM3000 series!

+Eventually, as this is all SCPI based (except the Victor driver), it could also be extended to other meters that have SCPI interfaces.
 Maybe some stuff even works out of the box.
 
 **NOTE:** This is work and progress and I have more features for this in mind. what works right now is connecting to the multimeter, switching modes and ranges as well as sampling rates. You also get nice graphing for a configureable amount of last samples and you can record samples to CSV, XLSX and JSON.
