3. THE KEYS The keys of the keypad respond differently to short, long, and sustained presses. keys provide new functions and allow the detection and acquisition of parameters complementary to the usual elementary measurements. Each of these keys can be used independently of the others or in perfect complementarity with them: this makes navigation simple and intuitive for looking up all measurement results. -
Page 12: Key (Second Function)
3.2. KEY (SECOND FUNCTION) This key is used to select the type of measurement (AC, DC, AC+DC) and the second functions marked in yellow next to the relevant positions of the switch. It can also be used, in the configuration mode, to modify the default value (see § 4.4). Remark: the key is invalid in the MAX/MIN/PEAK, HOLD and ΔREL modes. -

4.9.2. DC OR AC+DC MEASUREMENT To measure the DC or AC+DC current, if the display unit does not indicate "0", first correct the DC zero as follows: Step 1: to correct the DC zero Important: The clamp must not be closed on the conductor during the DC zero correction. Hold the clamp in the same position during the whole procedure so that the correction value will be exact. -
Page 20: Power Measurements W, Va, Var And Pf
4.11. POWER MEASUREMENTS W, VA, var AND PF This measurement is possible en single-phase or in balanced three-phase. Reminder: in DC or AC+DC power measurement, first correct the DC zero in current (see § 4.9.2, step 1). For the power factor (PF) and the powers VA and var, the measurement is possible only in AC or AC+DC. 4.11.1. -

4.13. FREQUENCY MEASUREMENT (Hz) The frequency measurement is available in V, W and A for AC and AC+DC quantities. The measurement is based on a count of the passages of the signal through zero (positive-going edges). 4.13.1. FREQUENCY MEASUREMENT IN VOLTAGE To measure the frequency in voltage, proceed as follows: 1. -
