“REL” button is pressed. REL mode is not available
for Hz/Duty range because it is an automatic range.
4) Press the “REL” button again to cancel the relative
measurement function.
5 Pressing the “REL” button at the HOLD mode will
cancel the HOLD function. The actual measurement
value taken will be stored in the memory as reference
value. The readings displayed for measurements
taken afterwards will be the difference between the
input value and the reference value.
6 Press the “RANGE”, “SELECT” buttons or turning the
rotary selector to cancel the relative measurement
function and resume normal measurement. The REL
symbol on the display will disappear.
7 OL triggering: Under the REL mode, OL (over limit) will
flash on the display if the input value exceeds the
allowed value for that range. Press the “REL” button
again to cancel the relative measurement function.
The REL mode cannot be entered when OL is flashing.

again to switch off the back light.
3 The back light will go off automatically after 10
seconds.
NOTE:
1) LED, which requires a larger working current, is the
main source of back light. Although the meter is
equipped with a timer set at 10 seconds (i.e. the back
light will be off automatically after 10 seconds),
frequent use of the back light will shorten the life of the
batteries. Therefore, do not use the back light unless
necessary.
2) When the battery voltage is ≤3.6V, the symbol “ ”
battery low will appear on the LCD. When the
back light is on, even if the batter is ≥3.6V, the “ ”
may appear because of its large working current which
will cause the voltage to drop. (The accuracy of the
measurement cannot be assured when the
“ “ symbol appears.) In this case, you need not
replace the batteries yet. Normally, the batteries can
last until the “ ” appears when the back light is not
being used.
4.8 AUTO POWER OFF
1 If there is no any operation within any thirty minute
period after the power is on, the meter will enter the
auto power off mode.
