STANDBY MODE 
In standby mode, the display goes blank to preserve battery life. The meter beeps and 
enters Standby if it is ON but inactive for more than 45 minutes. Press any pushbutton 
to resume operation. Standby is not allowed if the meter is in the MIN MAX mode. 
INPUT RANGES 
The input range determines the highest value the meter will measure. Most functions 
have more than one range (see SPECIFICATIONS). If the range is too low, the display 
shows OL (overload). If the range is too high, the display will show fewer digits of 
resolution.
