when in the

button, when pressed, allows the user to
toggle between Gross or Net display values. This can be useful
in many applications where it is necessary to display the change
in value from a certain part of the measurement range. When in
NET

NET
annunciator is lit. When in
GROSS
mode,
the
NET
annunciator is not lit.
The
SHUNT CAL
button can be pressed by the user at any point
in time. The standard unit shunts a 100k
Ω
resistor across the
negative excitation and negative signal connections. If this is
performed at the end of the calibration procedure, then a figure
can be noted so the user can check calibration accuracy or
connection integrity. The button has to be held down to operate.
When held down the SHUNT CAL annunciator is lit and the
display will flash to warn that the user is not viewing
instantaneous display values.
When
the
PEAK
button is pressed, the display will show the last
Peak reading. To reset the Peak reading, press the
PEAK
and
TROUGH
buttons simultaneously. When in
PEAK
mode, the
PEAK
annunciator will be lit and the display will flash to warn
that the user is not viewing instantaneous display values. To turn
off Peak mode, press the
PEAK
button again.

the
TROUGH
button is pressed, the display will show the
last Trough reading. To reset the Trough reading, press the
PEAK
and
TROUGH
buttons simultaneously. When in
TROUGH
mode, the

flash to warn that the user is not viewing instantaneous display
values. To turn off Trough mode, press the
