What does this +1 digit mean ?

Lets say, in a circuit, we are reading a 0.812 volts using the 2V range setting

The accuracy is ±(0.1% of the reading + 1 digit)

So the accuracy is ± 0.000812 V

But the meter can only display 3 digits

beyond the decimal point (2V range)

Therefore actual reading accuracy is ± 0.001 V

For this measurement the value is [0.812 ± 0.001] V
