Recording Minimum and Maximum Readings
MIN MAX records the highest and lowest measurements taken. MIN MAX cannot be used when the meter is measuring capacitance. In the MIN MAX mode, autoranging, Standby, and i are disabled.
1.Insert the test leads, and put the meter in volts or ohms.
2.Connect the leads to the circuit.
3.Press [j] to enter MIN MAX. j is displayed, and autorange is disabled. When the reading changes more than about 50 digits, the meter beeps a short Input Change Alert™. When a new minimum or maximum is recorded, the meter beeps a longer MIN MAX Alert™.
4.Press [j] to cycle through maximum, minimum, and present readings (see Figure 7). To exit MIN MAX and erase the stored readings, press [j] for 2 seconds or change the measurement function.
