catalog of functions and parameters, press
the START key. The standard display ele-
ments appear.
If further settings are necessary, navigate
to the appropriate point of the catalog of
functions and parameters using the ESC,
MASTER, DATA and MENU keys and carry
out the settings as required.
12 Performing measurements
When taking measurements and evaluating re-
sults, the polarity direction assignment of the
probe must be considered. The polarity of the
probe is assigned as follows:
“C1” or “C2” connection formula and retracting
measuring bolt ==>
The numerical value increases, the pointer on the
scale moves to the right. In other words, the dis-
play moves in the direction of the probe.
The direction of the display can be changed as
required
- by selecting a formula with a negative alge-
braic sign (“-C1” or “–C2”)
- by changing the algebraic sign of the factor
(-1.0 as opposed to 1.0)
However, if a formula with a nega-
tive algebraic sign is selected at the
same time as a factor with a nega-
tive algebraic sign, the direction of
the display is not changed, as both
negative algebraic signs cancel each
other out.
