1.4 Terminal connection diagram
*Do not gradually apply the power supply voltage to the meter but
from 0V quickly to the rated voltage. (If the voltage is gradually
increased, the meter may not start.)
2. Various functions
2.1 Setting the position of decimal point
The position of the decimal point of this meter can be externally
controlled from the lower connector terminals. Short the terminal
corresponding to the digit to be lit with the COM terminal.
2.2 Start/hold function
The start/hold function is used to control display hold
(measurement stop) and start (measurement start) from the external
control terminals.
Measurement is held with the START/HOLD terminal shorted with the
COM terminal (or level 0) or started with the START/HOLD terminal
opened from the COM terminal (or level 1).
In addition, a positive pulse within one-sampling time exceeding
1 ms enables one-shot measurement.
The function of the START/HOLD terminal wired on the upper side
when the BCD output is optionally provided is the same as that
described above.
However in this case, the control line is isolated from the input
signal line.
2.3 BCD output
This meter can provide the parallel BCD output as option. In
addition, for the BCD output of this meter, the input circuit is
isolated from the power circuit.
