Chapter 2 Operating Your Frequency Counter

Using the Gate & External Arm Menu Key

2-20

Operating Guide

To change the display to the better measurement resolution using digits arming,
perform the following steps:

Press Gate & ExtArm key

GATE: AUTO

is displayed.

Press any one of the arrow keys until

DIGITS

is displayed.

Press Gate & ExtArm or Enter key.

DIGITS: 4

is displayed (the default number of digits)

To set the number of digits displayed to 8, press the appropriate arrow keys until

DIGITS: 8

is displayed.

Press Enter key.

Press Run key.

0.100,000,000

is displayed.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Note that 8 digits of resolution are displayed (

0.100,000,000

For the convenience of the user, the leading “1” does not count as a digit when 8
digits are selected; thus, a result of

0.099,999,999

can alternate with a result

0.100,000,000

with a stable display, and no change of settings is

required.
