For voltage and current (excluding DC uA), it toggles between AC
and DC. For the other functions, it switches between °F and °C,
between Hz and % Duty-cycle, and between Continuity, Resistance,
Capacitance and Diode-Test. The default function for each application
is printed on the meter in white; the secondary function or functions
for each setting is printed on the meter in orange.
SEL / NCV BUTTON (FOR NCV TESTING)
Press and hold the SEL/NCV button
