4.1.6 Range (Manual and Auto)
Definition
When making measurements except CONT, DIODE and Temperature,
you can let the machine choose ranges for you, or you can select the
appropriate ranges manually by yourself. The difference between
auto-range and manual-range is the settling time. Auto-range is a
convenient way for user, but manual-range can usually speed up the
process.
If the input signal is beyond allowed range, an “OVLD” message will be
shown on the display. The threshold of maximum/minimum readings for
each range are 120 % of the range for maximum and 10% of the range
for minimum.
Default
The default is auto-range. The user selected range is stored in volatile
memory and the default will be restored when the meter is power-off.
Please refer to Table 2-1 on page 24 for the factory default range.
