System Operations
Model DMM has some other operations. Beeper control, saving and restoring setup information, front panel
display control, key sound control, self-test and calibration. These information is not directly related to
making measurements but is an important part of operating the multimeter.
4.5.1
Beeper Control
Normally, the multimeter will emit a tone whenever certain conditions are met. For example: the multimeter
will beep when a stable reading is captured in reading hold. You may want to disable the beeper for certain
applications.
When you disable the beeper, the multimeter will not emit a tone when:
1. A limit is exceeded in a limit test
2. A stable reading is captured in reading hold.
Disabling the beeper has no effect on the tone generated when:
1. An internal error is generated.
2. The continuity threshold is exceeded.
3. A front panel key is pressed.
The beeper state is stored in non-volatile memory and does not change when power has been off or
after a reset. The beeper is enabled when the multimeter is shipped from the factory.
Use the following steps to change the beeper's state:
