5.4.4  The Lo HYS Menu 

1.  Enter this menu by pressing 

the 

MODE

 key to the 

“SEt”

 

display if you are in the 
measurement mode.  

2. 

Press 

ENTER

 key. If the 

password has been set 
earlier, key in the password 
using the method described 
in section 4.1. 

 

3. 

Press 

ENTER

 once to 

confirm. After you set the 
correct password, you see 
the “

CAL

” and  “

COn

” 

display blinks alternatively. 
Press 

 key five times, the 

display shows 

“Lo”

 

“HYS” 

blinking alternately. 

 

4. Press 

ENTER

 key to access 

the Lo HYS menu and the 
display shows the last Lo 
HYS value or default (2% of 
Full Scale). Use 

 and 

 

keys to change the value of 
the Lo HYS point.  

5. Press

 ENTER

 to confirm the value of the Lo HYS. 

Press 

MODE

 key to exit to the measurement mode. 

You can press 

MODE

 key (as an ESCAPE key) to 

revert to the measurement value if 

ENTER 

is not 

pressed; the set value is not stored into memory. 

 

IMPORTANT

  :

 The Lo SET + ½ Lo HYS should be less 

than Hi SET - ½ Hi HYS i.e. Hi SET and Lo SET value (in 
consideration of the hysteresis band) can never overlap. Lo 
HYS and Hi HYS can be set independent of each other; this 
allows non-symmetrical hysteresis option.  

NOTE :

 The maximum 

value of Hysteresis is 
4% of its Full Scale (FS) 
selected. The Lo HYS 
hysteresis is spread 
equally on either side of 
the Lo SET point.
