Relative mode (REL)
The Relative mode (REL) takes the reading on the
display at the time the
REL
button is pressed and
uses it as a reference value that is deducted from all
subsequent measurements. This can be very helpful
in deducting the resistance of test leads in low ohm
measurements.
1.
To use
Relative
mode manually select the range
for the function.
2.
Depress the
REL
button to store the reading on
the display. The
“
REL
”
indicator will illuminate
confirming the EEDM575D is in relative mode.
3.
Now when making a measurement the value
stored will be deducted from the actual reading.
4.
To see what the stored value is, depress the
REL
button again and the
“
REL
”
indicator will
flash and the reading on the display will show
the stored value. Depress the
REL
button again
to return to REL mode.
5.
To clear or exit relative mode, press and hold
the
REL
button for approximately two seconds
and the EEDM575D will beep and return to nor-
mal operation.
Note: Differential temperature measurements can
be made using relative mode. See the appli-
cation note on page 34 for more information.
