The PA3000 has the option of fixed or auto ranging. Default is auto range. If you
choose a fixed range, or the peak of the input signal is larger than the range, then
an over range condition will occur. This will be indicated on the results screen
by
all the results in the over ranged channel flashing on and off. In addition, the
“Vrms” and / or “Arms ” will flash to indicate whether the over range is on either
the voltage channel, the current channel, or both.
