Functions

Buttons Operation: 

 

RANGE button: press to switch between automatic/manual ranges, once every press will switch to a higher 

    gear, and it will jump to the minimum range when pressing at the maximum range. To quit the manual range 
    mode, users can press this button for over 2s or switch the function selection knob.  (Only suitable for

MAX/MIN button (UT17B PRO): press to enter manual range mode and display the maximum value,

 

    

then press it again to display the minimum value. To exit the MAX/MIN measurement mode, press this button 

    for over 2 seconds or switch the knob. (Only suitable for

MIN button (UT15B PRO): press to enter manual range mode and display the minimum value. To exit MAX/

    MIN measurement mode, press this button for over 2 seconds or switch the knob. (Only suitable for 

    , 

    

V     , mV    , 

Ω 

)

    REL button: press to save the first measured value as reference, then input again, the displayed value is the 
    different value between current measured value and the reference value, press it again to exit relative 
    measurement mode. (Only suitable for

     )

    Hz/% button (UT17B PRO): under voltage and current measurement mode, press this button to switch to 
    frequency or duty ratio measurement mode. 

     

SELECT button: press to select functions (only suitable for multi-range). Under AC voltage mode, press this 

    button will display VFC and enter low-pass filter measurement mode, which can measure variable frequency
    voltage stably, press this button again to exit VFC measurement mode. 
    HOLD button (suitable for full range): 
    Press to lock hold the displayed value, and LCD will display       symbol, press it again to relieve and enter the 
    normal measurement mode. 
    BL button (    ): press to turn on/off the background light sensing function. 
    LIGHT button (        ): turn on or off the flashlight lighting function
