display shows the last measurement made until the timer or voltage test 
settings are changed or the test start/stop button is pressed.

Analogue display

This simulates an analogue meter movement to give the user a better 
“feel” for how a measurement is progressing. The analogue display 
shows resistance only.

The display is also used to indicate how ‘result download’ and ‘deletion 
of results’ is progressing.

Secondary display

This part of the display shows the results of ‘time resistance’ method 
tests.
