The change in the trigger slope is indicated by a + or 

– shown at 

the lower left corner of the display.   

 

The  Meter  defaults  to  a 

–  trigger  slope  whenever  the  Meter  is  in 

the Hz, %duty, ms-pulse, ms-period, dwell 

&

 RPM. 

Once the trigger slope is selected, press this button repeatedly to 

adjust trigger level if the meter reading is too high or unstable     

The Trigger Level has five steps and is different for each function 

combination.     

Press  this  TRIG  button  to  move  one  step  at  a  time  in  order  to   

select a suitable trigger level.   

The trigger level is indicated by t

he number above the “trig” symbol 

at the lower left corner of the LCD. 

The  number  of  steps  on  the  LCD  is  also  a  good  indication  of  the 

trigger level.

!   

Select the proper range before   

activating MAX MIN to ensure that the

Relative Mode 

The relative measurement feature 

allows you to make measurements   

relative to a stored reference value. 

A reference voltage, current, etc. 

can be stored and measurements 

made in comparison to that value.
