6.3 Evaluate Contact Check Function

101

Press .

The contact check function setting is set.

The LED of the contact check will not light up when the contact check function is
set to “oFF”. In all other settings, the LED will light up.

Once set, ”Low C” (Low C reject function setting screen) will be displayed in the
upper part of the MAIN display area.

The contact check setting cannot be confirmed without pressing

Press .

The unit returns to the measurement mode it was in prior to the menu items
being displayed.
