* If you set the output setting to 1.00 Ω or less and turn on the output, 1.00 Ω is generated. For details, see
the note in section 5.4.
Main Setting Display
• The main setting appears flush right at the resolution of each range.
• The ratio of the main setting to the range is passed on to the output setting even when you change
the range.
Example: If the main setting is 1.5000 A (15 %) at the 10 A current range and you change the
current range to 30 A, the main setting will be 4.500 A.

• When you change the range and the specified output value is outside the selectable range of the
new range, the main setting and polarity displays blink. If you turn any of the main setting dials
in this condition but the main setting still remains outside the selectable range of the new range,
the main setting is set to the maximum or minimum setting of the new range, and the blinking will
change to solid.
