Automatically setting the range (auto-range operation)
Selecting auto-range operation causes the range to be switched automatically according to the measured
value. This feature is convenient when you do not know the optimal range.
See: "Auto-range operation" (p.45)
Press any range key or press again.
Setting auto-range operation
1 Press for the voltage range or current range.
2 The AUTO lamp and the lamp for the range being measured will light up.
Canceling auto-range operation
• When the measurement range is set to auto-range operation, the output rate for level and waveform out-
put for D/A output will vary with the range. When measuring lines for which measured values fluctuate
excessively, exercise care so as not to mistake range conversions. It is recommended to use a fixed range
for this type of measurement.
• Voltage and current are displayed from 0.5% to 152% of the range.
• Active power is displayed from 0% to 231.04% of the range.
• Display range values have an error of ±1 dgt. due to calculation precision.
• When integration is started using auto-range integration, voltage auto-range operation will be canceled,
and the range at that point will be fixed. When integration is started using fixed-range integration, voltage
and current auto-range operation will be canceled, and the ranges at that point will be fixed.
• Ranges cannot be changed during display hold operation.
