6 HOLD and Delay Hold Feature
6.1 HOLD Feature
After pressing the „HOLD“ (8) button, the multimeter stops
updating the LCD panel. After enabling the HOLD function, the
multimeter switches from AUTO to the manual ranging mode,
but the measuring range remains the same.
6.2 Delay Hold Feature
The multimeter provides a delay HOLD feature. To activate the
delay HOLD feature, press the „HOLD“ (8) button for 2 sec-
onds. The multimeter will wait for 6 seconds, then enters
HOLD mode. During the 6 second period, the HOLD symbol
on the LCD will blink and after 6 seconds, the multimeter will
hold the measured value present on the LCD. To exit the delay
HOLD function, either change range or press the „AUTO/MAN“
(4) or „HOLD“ (8) button again.
7 MIN/MAX Feature
With the MIN/MAX function, you can hold the minimum and
maximum measured value which has been applied to the input
of the multimeter after activating the MIN/MAX function. The
most important application is the determination of the mini-
mum and maximum value for long-term monitoring of mea-
sured parameters. The actual measured value can still be
noted/read during this feature. Apply the measured quantity to
the multimeter and select the measuring range prior to activat-
ing the MIN/MAX function. With the function activated, you can
select the measuring ranges only manually, if you switch to
another range, the stored MIN/MAX values are cleared. After
pressing MIN/MAX (3) for the first time, the sub-display shows
maximum value. The sub-display shows minimum value when
it is pressed again. The main display always shows the current
value in MIN/MAX mode. To exit from this mode, either press
and hold the MIN/MAX (3) button for longer than one second,
operate the function selector switch (6) or turn the multimeter
OFF and ON again. Pressing HOLD (8) in MIN/MAX mode
