Figure 2-8.P.H Mode
Peak HOLD mode could capture the signals of an imminent of a positive polarity as short as 1 ms except that the accuracy is
low.
In Peak HOLD mode, press
to calculate the relative value and the screen will show symbol “ ”and the relative peak
value.
Press
to clear the value off and the new peak value would be captured.
Using Relative Mode (REL)
In measurement mode, press
enter into relative mode and the meter displays the present reading as a reference in the
secondary display and the relative value in the primary display (The difference between the reference and a new
measurement). Press
again to exit the mode.
This function is available with all functions except frequency/duty cycle ratio, MAX MIN, TC, RTD, dBm measurement.

Warning
Do be careful for the possible dangerous voltage in the
relative
mode.
Selecting the Range
Press
to select a fixed range.
Auto ranging (“
”lighted in the display) always comes on initially when you select a new function. In auto range, the
meter selects the lowest input range possible, ensuring that the reading appears with the highest available precision
(resolution).
If AUTO is already on, press
to enter MANUAL ranging in the present range. You can then select the next manual
range each time you press
. Return to auto ranging by pressing
.
Note
You cannot use
in conductance, diode test, or with the TC, RTD, and MAX
MIN features. These selections all have a specific fixed range. You cannot use
in the capacitance and frequency measurement functions, which have Auto ranging
only. DC mV has manual ranging only.
Using MIN MAX Mode
Note
The function is invalid in REL, TC, RTD, dBm, DC mV, Diodes, Continuity, Capacitance,
Frequency, Duty cycle ratio features.
The MIN MAX mode stores minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) input values. MIN MAX mode also calculates an
average (AVG) of all readings taken since the mode was activated. When the input goes below the stored minimum value or
above the stored maximum value, the meter beeps and stores the new value. In addition, the meter displays the present
measurement value in the secondary display and the new value in the primary display.
Press
the MAX, MIN and AVG value will be stored as the present displaying reading, and “ MAX” will be on display
first. Each subsequent press of
steps through the minimum (MIN), average(AVG) and back to the maximum reading.
