maximum values set for the analog meter, a warning message is
displayed. The analog meter also displays a digital reading. This digital
reading allows you to easily set the appropriate minimum and maximum
values for the analog display.
Note The analog display does not indicate as much measurement data
as the digital display. That is, it does not indicate when duty cycle,
range hold, offset or relative mode are enabled. In addition, it does
not indicate if the measurement is within the test limits if any are
set.
