will increment by one with beep function. The beep can be turned off or used 
when the component passes or fails specification. The beep tone for each bin 
is different so that the user can distinguish bins by listening. The bin detection 
sequence is from low to high. This means that the bin 1 comparator will 
execute first and if the measured value is not within bin 1’s limits, it will 
execute the bin 2 comparator and so on. For instance, if both bins are set to 
the same limits, the larger numbered bin will not be compared because the 
smaller numbered bin will always count first. 
To measure the value and record the count into the predefined bins, users 
can connect the component and press the TRIG softkey. If the flash drive is 
inserted and the Bin Log option is ON in the SYSTEM SETUP menu (see System 
Setup section), each measured value will be recorded onto the flash drive. 
The bin function has two modes: absolute mode and tolerance mode.  
Absolute Mode 
The absolute mode allows users to use absolute values for the high and low 
limits of each bin. The following example shows a typical setup of absolute 
mode.

The following graph is a visual representation of the Bin absolute mode setup 
demonstrated in Figure 3.16.
