from range overflow. If this function is enabled, the coulomb meter resets the
charge when the charge reaches the specified level. After resetting, the charge
measurement restarts.
This function is enabled/disabled by pressing the System Menu > Config >
Measure > Coulomb > Auto Dis. function keys. This softkey label shows the present
setting ON (enable) or OFF (disable).
The discharge level can be selected from 2 nC, 20 nC, 200 nC, or 2 C by pressing
the System Menu > Config > Measure > Coulomb > Dis. Level function keys. This
softkey label shows the present setting.
