No reliable measurement can be expected unless the input
signal is clearly accepted!
Note:
The input indicator may still be operational with the power
supply no longer adequate.
The
indispensable
pre-condition
to reliable
measurements
MAX/MIN/AVG Function
The C118 detects and memorizes the highest (MAX) and
the lowest (MIN) measurement within a controlled period
of time. From those, it further computes the average (AVG)
of all measurements.
Begin and end of this evaluation period is controlled, under
continued measurement, by the BEGIN/END key. First ac-
tuation start memorizing, next one stops it. Display
FUNC/RUN indicates the function as being active. Once it
has been terminated (power left on), the results can be re-
called to display by the key MAX/MIN/AVG. Power OFF
switching cancels the memorized values.
Note: Do not change the measuring mode or other terms
during the evaluating period.

Time Base of Readings
The facility of the C118 converts the originally measured
signal frequency into readings with a corresponding time
base, as indicated at the display. Select desired time base by
the key marked /h /min /sec /SF. The conversion has no in-
fluence to the measuring sequence, nor to the updating se-
quence of the display.
Totalizing
SF evokes a totalizing function within the instrument. It is
started and stopped by the BEGIN/END key, as described
above. Starting simultaneously cancels the previous result.
In FIX mode, the display reads the incoming signal pulses,
reduced by the input pre-divider as programmed by P09.
In VAR mode, they are further scaled by the computing
factor, as programmed in steps No. 02 … 04. The pro-
grammed mode, multiplying or dividing, and the factor, re-
sult in correspondingly enlarged or reduced reading steps
per input pulse. If the corresponding reading step thus re-
sults in a fraction, a decimal point in display can be set by
program step P10.
The totalizer capacity is up to 99999. Overflow will cause
errors.
The analog output cannot be used in this SF mode.
