4.4.2 Beeper

M3500A multimeter beeps when some certain conditions are met or
when an error occurs. But there may be time you want to disable the
beeper for some operations. Although you can turn off the beeper, the
click sound you hear when a button is pressed will not be disabled. The
beeper state is stored in a volatile memory and the default will be
restored when the meter has been turned off or after a remote interface
reset.
By disabling the beeper you will not hear the meter beeps when
a new minimum or maximum is found in Min/Max operation
a stable reading is detected and held
the test voltage is within the limits in diode testing
the source signal fails the limit testing.
After the beeper is disabled, the meter still emits a tone when:
an error occurs
any button on the front panel is pressed
the threshold value is exceeded in continuity testing.
Default
The beeper is enabled when it is shipped from the factory.
How to control the beeper
You can control the beeper from either the front panel operation or the
remote interface operation.
