Frequency Ranging

Frequency measurements are automatically ranged so that a frequency measurement is
always displayed with maximum resolution.
To select a range manually, press F to select the frequency function, and then press
U or V to select a range manually. Manual ranging can be performed on readings
displayed in the primary display only.
If you manually select a frequency range and the measurement exceeds the full-scale
value of that range, 0L is displayed to indicate an overload. If the frequency is lower than
20 Hz, UL is displayed. Refer to the "Electrical Specifications" section in Chapter 1 for
frequency ranges and full-scale values.

Measuring Resistance

The Meter offers 2-wire and 4-wire ohms measurement. Press O to toggle between 2-
wire and 4-wire measurement modes. The Meter displays 2*4 Wire at 2 wire or 2x4 wire
resistance measurement and displays 4 Wire at 4 wire resistance measurement.

2-Wire Resistance Measurement

To perform a 2-wire resistance measurement:
1. Connect test leads between the Meter and the circuit under test as shown in
Figure 3-5.
2. If required, press O to select 2-wire resistance measurement mode. 2*4 Wire is
displayed.
The function and measurement are displayed.
