The meter is capable of providing flux density measurements on one of three fixed ranges, or it can be programmed to automatically select the
best range for the present flux density. The available ranges are listed in the SPECIFICATIONS section of this manual. The ranges advance in
decade steps. The lowest range offers the best resolution while the highest range allows higher flux levels to be measured.
In the autorange mode, the range is advanced if the reading reaches 95% of the present range. The range is lowered when the reading falls
below 9% of full scale for the present range. The speed at which the readings are updated decreases slightly when AUTO ranging is used.
This setting is saved and will be restored the next time the meter is turned on.
NOTE: The AUTO range selection will be canceled if the RELATIVE mode is turned on.
OVERRANGE CONDITION
If the magnitude of the magnetic flux density exceeds the limit of the selected range the meter will display a flashing value of “2999” (gauss or
tesla mode) or “2387” (ampere meter mode). The next highest range should be selected. If already on the highest range, then the flux density
is too great to be measured with this instrument.
