4.6.3 Precautions

The Model 2020 allows a great deal of flexibility in choosing ranges

for automatic range switching. However, there are some pitfalls that are to
be avoided.

Ranges that work well together are:

Ranges that have the same lower limits but upper limits that
differ by approximately an order of magnitude

Ranges whose upper limits coincide with the lower limits of the
next higher range

Ranges where there is a gap between the upper limit of the
range and the lower limit of the next higher range.

Range schemes that are to be avoided include:

Ranges that overlap

Ranges whose limits are entirely within the span of an adjoining
range.

Figure 4-2 illustrates these schemes graphically.
