NOTE:

 

The default selection on this screen is MC reading,  which places the meter  in measurement 

mode.  Pressing  the SELECT key causes a single reading  to be taken (Triggered mode)  or initiates a 

reading  stream  (Continuous mode).    

 

READ  MODE – CONTINUOUS/TRIGGERED 

 

The meter  has two measurement  modes:  Triggered  and Continuous.  Choosing  the MODE  option and 

pressing  the SELECT key will  change the measurement  mode.   

o

 

Triggered  mode  causes a single  reading  to be taken every time  the SELECT button is pressed. 

Each reading  is stored in memory.  The last measurement  remains  displayed  on the screen.  

o

 

Continuous  mode  starts by pressing  the SELECT key. The meter  keeps taking  MC readings  in 

this mode.  These readings  are NOT stored until the SELECT key is pressed again. To exit 

continuous mode  WITHOUT  STORING  the current reading,  press any directional  key (UP, 

DOWN,  RIGHT,  LEFT). To exit continuous mode  and STORE the current reading,  press the 

SELECT key. Exiting  continuous mode  leaves the last reading  on the screen. To resume 

continuous mode,  press the SELECT key again. Use the directional keys to choose a different 

option.
