SPEC
On the basis of the technical specifications, the
SPEC
mode directly displays
the tolerance of the measurement in progress, so that there is no need to
search for it and calculate it.
On the basis of the main measurement, the display:
indicates the specifications (x % of reading ± n digit) according to the type of
measurement, the range selected and the frequency (in AC and AC+DC)
calculates the interval containing the true value, if the instrument is within its
tolerance:
SMIN
value
minimum specification
SMAX
value
maximum
specification
Example
:
MEM
MEM
mode records the contents of the digital display(s) in the memory of the
instrument at a pre-programmed rate.
A short press on
starts a series of recordings.
The
MEM
symbol flashes throughout the recording period; it is accompanied
by the number of recordings made.
Memorization of the measurements can be stopped by another short press.
The number of values to be memorized for a measurement run is
programmable: it therefore stops recording automatically.
Another press on
starts a new series of recordings.

Recording
capacity
158 measurements per sequence
1 to 10 sequences
6500 measurements maximum
1 to 10 sequences
(depending on available memory)
Example
:
activation
of
MEM
mode during
surveillance mode
Furthermore, the
MEM
mode may be activated
during the
SURV
mode or
during display of the
secondary functions.
The parameters set
are saved.
It will then be possible to
select them and display
them as the main function.
(When it is started up, the
MTX 3281B
reinitializes the date and time
(01:01:2000, 00:00:00).
Before starting work, set the correct date and time to "date-stamp" the
records. See §. Setting the date and time).
