Special Measurements
Special measurements are extra utilities that can be activated to
perform a special function alongside the normal measurement.
Only one of the special measurements may be activated at a given
time for each window/quantity. Activating another special measure-
ment deactivates the earlier special measurement in the same win-
dow (or the earlier special measurement using the same quantity).
All special measurements are started similarly:
• Select D/Menu followed by B/Window 2 Setup if needed.
• As the special measurement setting command is located in
the window setup’s submenu, select either the numerical key
or the cursor key to open the submenu.
• Then select 1/Special Measurements and the type of spe-
cial measurement from the provided pop-up list (or deactivate
a special measurement by selecting the option “None”).
Some of the special measurements do not require any additional
information. They start immediately after they are activated. Rate
of Change Measurement, Special Filtering and Resolution,
Redundant Measurement and Deviation Measurement do how-
ever need some additional information. Therefore when you acti-
vate them you will have to enter the required additional information
before the special measurement is started.
Notes.
Special measurements are only available in Basic Mode.
If you change any of the main settings of the measurement (Quan-
tity, Funct/Port), the defined special measurement is deactivated.
To zero/restart a special measurement without altering any main
measurement settings, do the same menu commands you used for
starting the special measurement.
