to Autoranging, press and hold the button until ‘Auto’

the selected range.

15. REL Button

The relative measurement feature allows you to make
measurements relative to a stored reference value. A
reference voltage, current, capacitance, etc. can be
stored and measurements made in comparison to that
value. This feature is usually used to ‘zero’ residual
readings

on

some

ranges

prior

to

taking

measurements. REL does not work on all ranges and
functions. To activate, first observe the reading to be
‘REL’ed’ on the LCD, then press and release the REL
button. The LCD should then indicate ‘zero’. Make the
desired measurements. To de-activate REL, press and
release the REL button again. ‘REL’ appears in the
display when REL is active.

ON THIS LED TO INDICATE THE PRESENCE OF AC
VOLTAGE. DOING SO MAY RESULT IN INJURY TO
THE USER.
