AUTORANGING/MANUAL RANGE SELECTION

When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into
Autoranging. This automatically selects the best range for the
measurements being made and is generally the best mode for
most measurements. For measurement situations requiring that
a range be manually selected, perform the following:
1. Press the RANGE key. The "Auto" display indicator will turn
off.
2. Press the RANGE key to step through the available ranges.
Observe the decimal point and units displayed until the
preferred range is located.
3. To exit the Manual Ranging mode and return to Autoranging,
press and hold the RANGE key for 2 seconds.
Note: Manual ranging does not apply for the Capacitance and
Frequency functions.

RELATIVE MODE

The relative measurement feature allows you to make
measurements relative to a stored zero reference value. A
reference voltage, current, etc. can be stored and
measurements made in comparison to that value. The displayed
value is the difference between the reference value and the
measured value.
1. Perform the measurement as described in the operating
instructions.
2. Press the REL button to store (zero) the reading in the display
and the "REL" indicator will appear on the display.
3. The display will now indicate the difference between the
stored value and the measured value.
