Note
Be sure to insert the banana-plug type-K temperature bead-probe Bkp60 with correct
polarities. Banana-pins to type-K socket adapter Bkb32 (Optional purchase) can
be used to accept other type-K probes using standard miniature plugs.
Temperature accuracies assume meter interior has the same temperature (isothermal
stage) of the ambient, particularly the plug of the probe being used, for a correct
junction voltage compensation. Allow the meter interior temperature to catch up with
that of the plug after a sudden change of measuring environment and hence the
ambient temperature. This can take up to an hour, for changes > 5°C, within a low
ventilated sturdy meter housing. The uncompensated temperature differences, if any,
will be reflected as offsets on the meter readings.
HOLD
HOLD feature freezes the display for later view. LCD " " turns on. Press the HOLD
button momentarily to toggle the HOLD feature.
Relative mode
Relative mode allows the user to offset the meter consecutive measurements with
the main-display displaying reading as the reference value. LCD " " turns on. Press
the (HOLD) button for one second or more to toggle Relative
RECORD mode
Press the REC button momentarily to activate MAX/MIN recording mode. LCD MAX &
MIN turn on. The meter beeps when new MAX (maximum) or MIN (minimum) reading
is updated. Press the button momentarily to read the MAX, MIN, and MAXMIN (active
measurement) readings in sequence. Press the button for 1 second or more to exit this
mode. Auto-Power-Off is disabled automatically in this mode.
5ms CREST mode
Press the CREST button for one second or more to activate CREST mode
(Instantaneous PEAK-HOLD) to capture current or voltage peak values in duration as
short as 5ms. LCD
MIN (-Peak) reading is updated. Press the button momentarily to toggle the MAX
and MIN readings. Press the button for 1 second or more to exit this mode. Auto-
Power-Off is disabled automatically in this mode.
& MAX turn on. The meter beeps when new MAX (+Peak) or
mode.
