COMMENTS
Relative Limits Not Possible
The test for out-of-limit results
is
performed on the actual measurement results, not upon the displayed
number. Thus,
if
the Ratio feature
is
enabled simultaneously with the Limit feature, the limit
test
is
still based on the measurement result, not the computed ratio. Limits cannot be set
in
terms of relative
measurement results.
Importance

Key Sequence
If Special Function
14.1
or
14.2
is
initiated with no previous numeric value, the ratio reference becomes
the entered value. The desired limit must be entered before the Special Function numeric code.
