The meter has an energy saving feature to avoid unnecessary
power consumption during battery operation.
The energy saving feature switches off the meter during battery
operation if no key is pressed during the adjusted interval. (How to

The switch-off interval of the energy saving feature is not active
when the meter is supplied with power via the power pack or the
