Display selection with the Hz key
The frequency measurement function is able to detect the
presence of harmonic currents in neutral conductors and
determines, whether these neutral currents are the result of
unbalanced phases or non- linear loads. Press to enter
the frequency measurement mode for current or voltage
measurements. The voltage or current values will be
displayed on the secondary display and the frequency values
on the primary display. Press this key again to step through
frequency (Hz), duty cycle (%), or pulse width (ms). This
allows simultaneous monitoring of real- time voltage or
current with frequency, duty cycle, or pulse width.
After you press and hold for more than one second,
the primary display will revert to voltage or current
measurement values.
