Tolerance Mode
This function is designed for convenient component sorting.
There are four tolerance ranges; 1%, 5%, 10% and 20%. To enter
tolerance mode, select a component that is to be used as the standard,
and connect to the test probes, then press the "
TOL
" pushbutton to set
this value, as the standard reference tolerance. Similarly, any value
which appears on the LCD display, such as
DH
or
MAX/MIN/AVG
, can
be used as a standard value to sort components. Press this button
again to cycle through 1%, 5%, 10% and 20% tolerance as desire.
An audible tone of “Beep-Beep-Beep” will sound whenever the
component under test exceeds set tolerance. Conversely, a single tone
of “Beep” indicates the component is within the setting tolerance.
Note:
1. The tolerance mode can’t be activated if the tested display is either
"
OL
" or "
0000
"; nor can it be activated the tested capacitance value
is below 10 counts.
2. Tolerance mode is only available in manual range. Activation while
in auto-range will automatically set the meter to manual range and
cause calibration prompts to be displayed in the recommended
ranges.
3. The tolerance mode can’t be activated if the meter is set at
auto-range with data hold mode activated.
