Changing the % scale range
This setting is used with % scale current measurements (see
page 78). The multimeter converts DC current measurements
to a percentage scale readout of 0% to 100% based on the
selected range in this menu. For example, a 25% readout
represents a DC current of 8 mA on the 4- 20 mA % scale, or
a DC current of 5 mA on the 0- 20 mA % scale.
To change the % scale range:
1 Press for more than 1 second to enter the
multimeter’s setup menu.
2 Browse to Menu 2 > mA SCALE, and press edit the
value.
3 Use the arrow keys to change the % scale range. Select
OFF to disable the % scale readout.
4 Press to save your changes (or press to
discard your changes).
5 Press and hold until the multimeter restarts to return
to normal operation.
Changing the continuity alert
This setting is used with continuity tests (see page 54). The
multimeter will beep to alert users to the presence of circuit
continuities.
