Select a Range
You can let the multimeter automatically select the range using autoranging, or you can select a fixed range
manually. Autoranging is convenient because the multimeter automatically senses and selects the appropriate
range for each measurement. However, manually selecting the range results in better performance, since the
multimeter does not have to determine which range to use for each measurement.
The default setting for all measurement functions is autoranging.
Press [ + ] to disable autoranging and manually select an upper range, or
Press [ – ] to disable autoranging and manually select a lower range.
Press [Range] to enable autoranging again.
