7. Indication hold function
Pressing the HOLD key, (H), holds the indication. This is useful for easy reading when the
indication changes rapidly during measurements. Pressing the HOLD key again will release the
indication hold function.
8. Maximum or minimum value display function
The SK-1120 can display the highest temperature (maximum value) or the lowest temperature
(minimum value) measured after the MAX/MIN key is pressed. During this time, the label
"MAX" or "MIN" is lit accordingly. To return to the normal measurement mode, keep pressing
the MAX/MIN key for at least two seconds. The relationships between the maximum and
minimum value display functions and the MAX/MIN key operations are shown below:
Display of the Highest Temperature
Measurement mode
Display of the Lowest
Display of the Average Temperature
To return to the normal measurement mode from either the maximum, minimum or average
value display mode, keep pressing the MAX/MIN key for at least two seconds. The time when
the latest maximum or minimum value is recorded can be displayed in the time display area on
the LCD.
*Other uses
Unless the normal measurement mode is restored, the maximum or minimum value display
mode continues, keeping the latest maximum or minimum value on the display. In this way, the
peak or valley hold function (indication of the maximum or minimum temperature measured
during the time duration) of the peak/valley hold meter can be used.
CAUTIONS
- If the SK-1120 has no sensor probe connected, "OL" (over-range) is recorded as the
maximum value and the minimum value. If the sensor probe is connected after being turned
on, the maximum value is still recorded as "OL." To release this condition, first turn off and
connect the sensor probe before turning on the power again, or restore the normal
measurement mode by pressing the MAX/MIN key for at least two seconds.
- With the SK-1120, if either the temperature (T1) at sensor probe 1 or the temperature (T2) at
sensor probe 2 is recorded as "OL," the value "T1 - T2" is also displayed as "OL."
