Front-Panel Menu Operation

By now you should be familiar with the

FUNCTION

and

RANGE / DIGITS

groups of front-panel keys. You should also understand how to make
front-panel connections for the various types of measurements. If you
are not familiar with this information, we recommend that you read
chapter 1, “Quick Start,” starting on page 11.

This chapter introduces you to three new groups of front-panel keys:

MENU

,

MATH

, and

TRIG

. You will also learn how to use the comma

separator and store readings in memory. This chapter does not give a
detailed description of every front-panel key or menu operation. It does,
however, give you a good overview of the front-panel menu and many
front-panel operations. See chapter 3 “Features and Functions,” starting
on page 49, for a complete discussion of the multimeter’s capabilities
and operation.
