Refresh Hold
The Refresh Hold function allows you to freeze the displayed
value. The bar- graph is not held, and will continue to reflect
the instantaneous measured value. You can use the Setup
mode to enable Refresh Hold mode when you are working
with fluctuating values. This function will auto trigger or
update the held value with a new measured value, and emit
a tone to remind you.
1 Press to enter Refresh Hold mode. The present
value will be held, and the annunciator will
turn on.
2 It will be ready to freeze a new measured value once the
variation of measured values exceeds the variation count
setting. While the multimeter is waiting for a new stable
value, the character “R” in the annunciator will
flash.
3 The annunciator will stop flashing once the new
measured value is stable, and then the new value will be
updated to the display. The annunciator will
again remain on and the multimeter will emit a tone to
remind you.
4 While in the Refresh Hold mode, you may press to
switch between DC, AC, and AC+DC measurements.
5 Press again to disable this function. You may also
press for more than 1 second to quit this function.
