button will step to the next range as indicated by the units and 
decimal point location. Press and hold the Range button for two 
seconds to return to autoranging. 

 

 

Data Hold   

The Data Hold function allows the   
meter to "freeze" a measurement for 
later reference.

 

1.  Press the DATA HOLD button to 
    “freeze” the reading on the indicator. 
      The indication of “HOLD” will appear 
   in the display. 
2.  Press the DATA HOLD button 
   again to return to normal operation. 
 

 

Peak Hold 

 

The Peak Hold function captures 

 the peak AC or DC voltage or current.  

The meter can capture negative  

or positive peaks as fast as 

 1 millisecond in duration. 

 

 

 

1.  Set the function switch to the Amps or Volts. 

2.  Press and Hold the 

PEAK

 button until “

CAL

” appears 

in the display. This procedure will zero the range 
selected & the meter will go into manual ranging mode. 

3. Press 

the 

PEAK

 button, 

Pmax

 will display. 

4.  The display will update each time a higher positive 

peak occurs. 

5. Press the 

PEAK

 button again, 

Pmin

 will display. The 

display will now update and indicate the lowest 
negative peak. 

6.  To return to normal operation, press and hold the 

PEAK

 button until the 

Pmin

 or 

Pmax

 indicator 

switches off. 

Note

: If the Function switch position is changed after a 

calibration the Peak Hold calibration must be repeated for the 
new function selected.
