(11)PEAK Button

The PEAK mode is used to measure the peak 
value of a signal. It is useable with AC Current 
measurements. Press the PEAK button, the
PMAX annunciator turns on

and the display 

shows the maximum peak value. When the
PEAK  button is pressed again (less than one 
second), the PMIN annunciator turns on, PMAX 
annunciator turns off and the display shows the 
minimum peak value. When the PEAK button is 
pressed for the third time (less than one second), 
the PMAX and PMIN annunciators are blinking, 
and display shows current input value. The meter 
returns to normal operation if the PEAK button is 
pressed and held for longer than one second.

(12)VAHZ Button

If VAHZ button pressed in ACV or ACA  measure-
ment mode, the meter enters frequency counter 
mode with automatic range selection. Therefore, 
pressing RANGE button in VAHZ mode doesn't 
change the frequency range. However, range 
changes the sensitivity of frequency detection.
If the input signal has a small amplitude, the
user shall increase the sensitivity.

(13)MAX / MIN Button

Press button to enter the MAX/MIN recording 
mode. When the MAX/MIN button is pressed for 
the first time, the "MAX" annunciator turns on, and 
the display shows the maximum value. When the
MAX/MIN button is pressed again (less than one 
second), the "MIN" annunciator turns on, and the 
display shows the minimum value. When the 
MAX/MIN button is pressed for the third time (less 
than one second), the MAX and MIN annunciators 
are blinking, and display shows current input 
value. The meter returns to normal operation if the 
MAX/MIN button is pressed and held for longer 
than one second. Pressing the HOLD button in 
MAX/MIN mode makes the meter stop updating 
the maximum or the minimum value.
