SECTION 3
Setting Measurement Conditions (Expert Menu)
Selecting Hold Conditions for Measurement Values
The hold function allows holding (maintaining) an arbitrary value, such as the maximum or minimum
values, among the measurement values obtained from the start to the end of the measurement, and
outputting the value after the measurement is completed.
Example 1: Holding the peak value (used in combination with hold output)

Example 2: Holding the peak value for every three measurements (used in combination with the logging
function)
