Summary table
of the keys
Successive short presses
Long press
AC/DC MODE
-Choice of AC, DC, or AC+DC coupling
-Access to the second function (yellow marking
on the front panel)
-In the
∆
REL or MAX/MIN PEAK plus
∆
REL
mode, the key is used to go from
(present value - reference value) to
present value - reference value
reference value
The value is displayed in %.
Choice of bargraph style:
Bargraph graduated from
zero to full scale or
with central zero
RANGE
-Manual selection of the measurement range
-Exit from the MAX/MIN, PEAK mode
Exit from the manual mode to
return to auto range
(the default)
*
MAX/MIN PEAK
(
*
)
See example on p. 13
-1
st
press: recording of MAX, MIN, PEAK+,
PEAK- (on the 2nd display unit).
The max. value is displayed as default.
- Subsequent presses: look-up of recorded
values
Exit from the MAX/MIN PEAK
mode
HOLD
-Activation/deactivation of freezing of the
display. Acquisition continues as a
background task.
*
In the MAX/MIN PEAK mode, when HOLD
is active, the blinking of the "MAX MIN PEAK"
symbol indicates that acquisition continues as
a background task.
On/off switching of the backlight

-1
st
press: activates the relative mode
∆
REL
(present value - reference value)
and stores the measured value, which will be
used as reference. “
∆
Mem” indicates storage
of the reference.
-Subsequent presses: toggles the display
between measured value, reference, and
relative measurement
∆
REL, reference for
look-up.
Exit from the
∆
REL mode and
erasure of the reference value
(the
∆
Mem symbol goes off)
Activation of the 300Hz bandwidth filter
Activation/deactivation of the key-

The
,
,
,
,
, and
functions can be accessed by successive short
or long presses on a key (see table above). The functions are not mutually exclusive; they can be
combined.
It is therefore possible to implement mAX/MIN PEAK in relative or pure relative only. Similarly, the HOLD
mode applies to all functions and does not interfere with mAX/MIN PEAK surveillance; all it does is freeze
the display. Each press is validated by an audible signal.
