You can set up the measurement or source display
to show your own custom units. To do this, you
select a function, for example mV dc, scale it as you
choose, then enter an alphanumeric name for your
custom units, for example, “PH.”

Proceed as follows to set up a custom unit:

When measuring or sourcing the function of your
choice, press the

of your transfer function.

softkey.
