Application :
When the tachometer is used in a place where it is difficult or impossible to read the display unit, the
HOLD function can be used in conjunction with MIN/MAX recording to store the minimum and maximum
values reached.
4.4 SMOOTHING OF THE MEASUREMENT
Pressing the
key starts the smoothing of the measurement (SMOOTH displayed). The digital
value indicated is then the sliding average of the last 10 measurements (approximately 5 seconds).
The bargraph always indicates the instantaneous measurement.
In MIN/MAX recording, if the SMOOTH symbol is displayed, the values recorded are the smoothed
values.
Activating or deactivating the SMOOTH mode during MIN/MAX recording cancels the MIN and MAX
values already stored.
Remark: The SMOOTH function has no effect on the counting function.
4.5 MANUAL CHOICE OF RANGE
When the device is switched on, or during a change of function, the device automatically selects the
most appropriate measurement range. Each function has 4 or 5 ranges, except for the duty cycle
function (2 ranges).
In automatic operation, the digital display unit has a display capacity of 20,000 points and the possible
full-scale values of the bargraph are 2, 20, 200, 2000, 20,000, and 200,000.
In the automatic mode, the digital display unit switches to a higher range when
20,000 points is reached.
A first brief press (<2 s) on the
