Multiple displays
Each measurement function has its own set of "multiple displays" shown in the bottom line of the front
panel display. The
PREV
and
NEXT
display keys scroll through the selections for the present
function.
The multiple displays can show a reading in a different form, or give additional information about the
reading, for example:
Top line shows a reading.
Bottom line shows a zero-center bar graph with adjustable limits.
To scroll through the multiple displays available for each measurement functions, repeatedly press
and release the
NEXT
display key. The same action with the
PREV
display key does a reverse scroll
through the displays.
Multiple displays that are specific to a particular function or operation are discussed later in this
section, such as the calculations display in math. Some of the displays that are common to all
measurement functions are discussed here.
