Delay times
Setting the measurement delay (delay time)
In the following cases, delay b2 and delay c may last longer than the set delay
time.
• When auto range is set and auto range does not stabilize during the set delay
time, the delay time is extended as required.
• The time-out for auto range is 5 seconds. If the range does not stabilize within
5 seconds, operation is terminated.
• When the frequency range is set to start from 0.1 Hz, 15 sec is added before
measurements start so a measurement setting of less than 15 sec will still
include a 15 sec delay. (Includes a 15 sec delay time)
However, if the delay time is set to 15 sec or longer, that setting will have priority.
