Instrument Configuration (SET-UP)
NOTE:
The instrument is factory configured. For most measurements,
simply choose the test voltage and press the
START/STOP
button.
However, configuration can be performed by one of these two methods:
■
The
SET-UP
function allows overall configuration of the instrument
independently of which measurement functions are chosen.
■
The
CONFIG
button allows configuration of the chosen measurement
function before and during a measurement.
NOTE:
A configuration made by either method, is updated for both
(
SET-UP
function or
CONFIG
button).
