HOW
TO USE
THE METER
Pushbuttons
tone is emitted when
an overload is recorded.
Push
(uinuax)
to
cycle
through the
maximum
(MAX), minimum
(MIN),
average (AVG),
and
present
readings.
The MIN, MAX, or AVG
annunciator
turns on to indicate what value is being
displayed.
If
an overload is recorded,
the averaging function
is stopped and
the
average value becomes OL
(overload).
The true average
of all
the readings taken over at
least
a
thirty-six hour
period can be displayed.
If
this
duration is exceeded, the actual
minimum
and
maximum
readings
will
continue to be
captured
and
can be displayed.
However, new averages are
no
longer
calculated.
The
last
average calculated
is
retained as the
average
reading.
At normal (default)
record speed,
changes
to
the
voltage,
current, or
resistance inputs that
last at
least 100
milliseconds
are recorded,
and
the
"100
ms"
an
nunciatorturns
on.
Press and hold
down
the
(miwm»x)
for
2
seconds
to exit
and erase recorded
readings.
In the MIN
MAX
mode,
press
C
"'»
)
to select
the
Peak
MIN MAX mode
("1
ms",
"RECORD",
and
"MAX" are
displayed).
Voltage or current inputs
that
last for 1 milliseconds or
longer
are
captured. Press
10
(uinuax)
to select the minimum
(MIN) reading. Press
again
to
return
to the maximum (MAX
)
read ing. To
reset
the Peak
MIN
MAX mode
press (~^iT) twice:
the
first
press exits the mode, and
the second
press
re-enters
the
mod
e.
To completely
exit the MIN
MAX
mode, press
(WW)
for
one second. In Peak
MIN
MAX
mode,
the
present reading, average
(AVG) readings, and analog
display
are not
dis-
played.
Before
selecting
Peak MIN MAX,
select DC
voltage or current to DCcouple the input waveform;
or AC voltage to capacitively
couple
the
input
wave-
form. Peak MIN
MAX
works in all functions
except
ohms,
frequency
and capacitance.
In the
MIN MAX Recording
mode, press to
stop
the
recording
of readings; press again to res-
tart
recording.
If
recording
is
stopped, the minimum,
maximum, average, and present values are frozen,
but the analog display
continues to
be active.
When
recording is
stopped,
the stored
readings are not
erased
and
you
can still scroll
through these
readings.
Power-On Option: Select
High Accuracy MIN
MAX
Recording
The High Accuracy
MIN
MAX Recording
mode has
a
response
time of
approximately
1
second.
Changes
of more
than 1
second
duration are recorded. The "1s" annunciator
is
turned on. In
the
Frequency Counter mode, readings
are always recorded at
the
high accuracy recording
speed;
the
response time
is not
selectable.
