4.6.3 Precautions
The Model 2020 allows a great deal of flexibility in choosing ranges
for automatic range switching. However, there are some pitfalls that are to
be avoided.
Ranges that work well together are:
•
Ranges that have the same lower limits but upper limits that
differ by approximately an order of magnitude
•
Ranges whose upper limits coincide with the lower limits of the
next higher range
•
Ranges where there is a gap between the upper limit of the
range and the lower limit of the next higher range.
Range schemes that are to be avoided include:
•
Ranges that overlap
•
Ranges whose limits are entirely within the span of an adjoining
range.
Figure 4-2 illustrates these schemes graphically.
