MEM (Memory): Up to 10 measurements (0 to 9) can be stored and recalled. Press the
FUNCTION key five times then press the SET/RESET key once to store the present
measurement value in the first available memory location. The memory location
number will flash to the upper left of the left-most sub-LCD. The memorized reading
is shown on the center sub-LCD. Use the UP/DOWN keys to scroll to the next free
memory location. Take another measurement and press the SET/RESET key to
store it. If a memory location number which has been used before is selected, the
previous value is updated (erased) with the new measurement value. If you
accidentally exit the function mode by pressing the SET/RESET key too many times,
the memory is not erased. It can be “recalled” using the RECALL function which
follows…
RCL(Recall): This function recalls memorized readings to the LCD. Press the
FUNCTION key 6 times until the RCL icon flashes. Press the SET/RESET key once.
The memory location reference number flashes to the upper left of the left-most sub-
LCD. Press the UP or Down keys to select a memory address (a number from 0-9
where the measurement has been stored). Press the SET/RESET key again to
recall the reading memorized in the selected location. The recalled value (ref. No. 0)
will appear on the left sub-display; the 2
nd
recalled value (ref. No. 1) appears on the
center sub-display and the 3
rd
recalled value (ref. No. 2) appears on the right side
sub-display, and so on for the remaining locations.
CMP (Comparison): Comparison mode allows readings to be compared to user
programmable High/Low setpoints. Press the FUNCTION key and then the DOWN
key. Press the SET/RESET key once and the word “LOW” should begin flashing
above the left-most sub-LCD. Press the SET/RESET to begin editing the LOW user
setpoint. Use the SET/RESET key to move from digit to digit and use the UP/DOWN
keys to change a digit’s value. When done, press the SET/RESET key until the LOW
setpoint value ceases flashing. The word “HIGH” will begin flashing over the right-
most sub-LCD. Edit the HIGH setpoint in the same manner as the LOW setpoint.
After both reference values have been defined press the SET/RESET key again.
The R-H (Range Hold) icon will begin flashing. Set the measurement range via the
UP/DOWN keys. On the center sub-display “LO” appears for readings less than the
low reference value, “Hi” is displayed for readings higher than the highest reference
value, and “Pass” is displayed for readings in the region between the low and high
reference values. To exit CMP mode, press the FUNCTION key.
AUTO-POWER-OFF extends the life of the battery: if neither the rotary function switch
nor any button is operated for 12 minutes the DMM is automatically turned off.
During active “communication” of the multimeter with a PC, AUTO-POWER-OFF is
disabled.
