Selecting the Range
Select the range for voltage, current, and resistance.
• When the output is turned on, the signal is output from the appropriate output terminals for the
selected range.
• If you change the range when the output is on, the output turns off.
Voltage Range Settings
Select from the following.
100 mV, 1 V, 10 V, 100 V, and 1000 V
