of Counter (In Counter Functions LEDs area). Now, the external counter is in
enabling status.
When the is pressed, the Gate time LEDs will be according to the
cycle of 0.01S, 0.1S, 1S, and 10S to display. The Different Gate time will
provide different resolution of counter. So users can use the key to choose
whatever the resolution they need.
The detailed relation among the Test frequency, the Gate time, the State
LEDs and minimum resolution is as below:
