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 vaJue.
