3.3.1.11 Min / Max / Ave
MIN
MAX
RESTART
Press the MIN/MAX key to display the minimum, maximum
and average values for any and all measured parameters.
Accumulation of 3-phase minimum and maximum parame-
ters occur only while the 3-phase display is active.
The
MIN/MAX/AVERAGE feature continuously updates the mini-
mum, maximum and average values stored since initial power-on. During
display of a parameter, any new value exceeding the currently stored
minimum or maximum will overwrite it. Averaging is continually updated
during the measurement period. Accumulation of data can also be re-
initiated, by pressing the SHIFT key, then the RESTART key.
Pressing the MIN/MAX key repeatedly scrolls between minimum,
maximum, average and present data.
3.3.1.12 Transducer
TRANSDUCER
CONFIG
Press the TRANSDUCER key to show measurements taken at
the front-panel transducer voltage and current inputs. Config-
ure the Model 931A to display the transducer-input magnitude
as either the actual measured quantity or as a percentage of full
scale. Likewise, display the transducer output level as either the measured
quantity or percentage of full scale, or as a percent error (based on the
input and output ranges). Prior to initiation of Transducer measurements,
the Model 931A automatically performs a self-calibration.
