Selecting the range
Pressing switches the LCR meter between manual and autoranging. It also
cycles through the available LCR meter ranges when manual ranging is enabled.
Autoranging is convenient because the LCR meter automatically selects an
appropriate range for sensing and displaying each measurement. However,
manual ranging results in better performance, since the LCR meter does not have
to determine which range to use for each measurement.
In autorange, the LCR meter selects the lowest range to display the highest
available precision (resolution) for the input signal. If manual range is already
enabled, press for more than 1 second to enter the autoranging mode.
If autoranging is enabled, press to enter the manual range mode.
Each additional press of sets the LCR meter to the next higher range, unless it
is already in the highest range, at which point the range switches to the lowest
range.
