Note (1) - If the level of the signal is too low (U<3V or I<3A) or if the frequency is 
less than 5Hz, the device cannot determine the frequency and displays dashes "---"

  (from 10Hz to 5kHz in voltage and 

from 10Hz to 1kHz in current): 

 Uncertainties: add 1% R to the values of the table above. 

 Capture time of the extrema: approximately 100ms.
