Changing the % scale range
This setting is used with % scale current measurements (see
page 98). The multimeter converts DC current measurements
to a percentage scale readout of 0% to 100% based on the
selected range in this menu. For example, a 25% readout
represents a DC current of 8 mA on the 4- 20 mA % scale, or
a DC current of 5 mA on the 0- 20 mA % scale.
To change the % scale range:
1 Press for more than 1 second to enter the
multimeter’s setup menu.
2 Press or until is shown on the
secondary display.
