b 
The battery is low. XWWarning:  To avoid false readings, which could lead to 
possible electric shock or personal injury, replace the battery as soon as the 
battery indicator appears.

Displays selected range 
P 
HiRes 
The Meter is in high resolution  
(Hi Res) mode. HiRes=19,999 
Auto 
The Meter is in autorange mode and automatically selects the range with the 
best resolution. 
Q 
Manual 
The Meter is in manual range mode. 
R 
 
The number of segments is relative to the full-scale value of the selected 
range. In normal operation 0 (zero) is on the left.  The polarity indicator at the 
left of the graph indicates the polarity of the input.  The graph does not operate 
with the capacitance, frequency counter functions, temperature, or peak min 
max. For more information, see “Bar Graph”. The bar graph also has a zoom 
function, as described under "Zoom Mode". 
S 
RPMon  oconventional (4 cycle) Counts every other revolution. 
nwaste spark of 2 cycle. Counts every revolution.

0L 
 Overload condition is detected.  
Error Messages 
bAtt 
Replace the battery immediately. 
diSC 
In the capacitance function, too much electrical charge is present on the capacitor being tested. 
EEPr 
Err
 
Invalid EEPROM data. Have Meter serviced. 
CAL 
Err 
Invalid calibration data. Calibrate Meter. 
LEAd 
WTest lead alert. Displayed when the test leads are in the A or mA/µA terminal and the selected 
rotary switch position does not correspond to the terminal being used.
