Probe Hold
Because probing small areas requires careful concentration, it is often difficult to read the instrument display while
taking measurements. Therefore, the instrument includes a front-panel [Probe Hold] key that allows you to take
readings without viewing the display. You can generate up to eight readings and hold them on the display for later
viewing. These readings may be of different measurement types and you may clear displayed readings at any time.
In Probe Hold mode, the instrument optimizes measurement settings to allow reliable detection of stable signals (these
settings are restored to their original values when you exit Probe Hold.) When you probe a signal, the instrument beeps
and automatically records a measurement when it finds a series of stable readings. You may take additional readings
without pressing [Probe Hold] again.
Because the Probe Hold display is optimized for the Probe Hold readings, you may not combine it with other display
modes, such as histogram, bar graph, trend chart, or statistics.
