b) RANGE - Manual Measurement Range Selection
The RANGE function permits manual setting of a specific measurement range. It is possible that the automatic meas-
urement range setting will already select the next-higher measurement range or switch between ranges if the range is
problematic. To suppress this, the measurement range can be set manually in some measuring functions.
The manual measuring range setting works in all measuring functions, except: Motor, mV, continuity test and diode
test.
Pushing the “RANGE” button will cause the “AUTO” symbol to go out and the device to switch to manual mode.
Each push of the “RANGE” button switches the measurement range; at the end, it will start with the lowest measure-
ment range again. The respective measurement range is indicated by the position of the decimal point.
To switch off this function, keep the “RANGE” button pressed for approx. 2 s. The “AUTO” symbol appears and the
automatic measurement range selection is active again. Switching the measuring function deactivates this function
as well.
c) MAX MIN Function
This function permits saving and display of maximum or minimum values during
a measuring series. Press the “MAX MIN” button to activate this measuring
function. Auto-range is deactivated.
With the active function, the minimum and maximum value of the current
measuring series is saved at the same time.
The max. and min. display is shown in the small subdisplay and can be
switched with every push of a button (MAX MIN).
The values are deleted after a measuring function change or when switching
off the device.
To deactivate the function, keep the “MAX MIN” button pushed for approx. 2
seconds. The display “MAX” or “MIN” disappears and “AUTO” appears again.
This additional function cannot be activated in the measuring
function "LPF", "Motor", "V AC+DC", continuity, diode test
and "Hz”.
d) REL Function
The REL function allows a reference value measurement to avoid possible scatter displays or line loss as it occurs,
e.g., during impedance measurements. For this purpose, the current indicated value is set to zero. A new reference
value is set. Auto-range is deactivated.
Press the “REL” button to activate this measuring function. The display indicates “Δ”.
In order to switch off this function, push the “REL” button again or change the measurement function.
This additional function cannot be activated in the measuring function “Motor” and “Hz”.
