7. OTHER FUNCTIONS
7-1 Sleep Function
This is a function to prevent the instrument from being left powered
on in order to conserve battery life.
The instrument automatically enters the Sleep (powered-down)
Mode about 10 minutes after the last switch operation.
To exit the Sleep Mode, press the Data Hold or Frequency Selector
Button or turn the Range Selector Switch to OFF, then to any other
position.
How to Exit the Sleep Mode:
Turn the Range Selector Switch from “OFF” to another position
with the Data Hold Button pressed. Then, “P.OFF” is shown on
the display. This disables the Sleep function and enables
continuous use of the instrument.
To enable the Sleep function, turn the Range Selector Switch back
to “OFF”, then to any other position.
Note:
The instrument consumes small amount of current in the Sleep
Mode. When the instrument is not in use, make sure to set the
Range Selector Switch to “OFF”.
7-2 Date Hold Function
This is a function to freeze the readings on the display. When the
Data Hold Button is pressed once, the current reading is held even
though current under test varies. "H" mark is shown on the upper
right corner of the display.
To exit the data hold mode, press the Data Hold Button again.
Note: When the Sleep function works while the instrument is in the
data hold mode, data hold is cancelled.
