(safety terminal for 4 mm banana plugs)
Connection (high potential) for measurements of
voltages, resistances, temperatures and diode
junctions in conjunction with the COM input
(safety terminal).
For safety reasons, the voltage across
this terminal compared to the case
(guard wire, ground) shall be 600 V
most.
HOLD/OFFSET (pushbutton)
Pushbutton for validating the HOLD or OFFSET
functions. Pressing the key the first time will
freeze the front panel display. The HOLD indicator
then comes on. The AUTO, AC-DC, BEEP,
11 and 12 keys are inoperative.
A second press gives access to the relative mode.
The value memorized by the HOLD function is then
subtracted from each measurement before being
displayed. The OFFSET indicator
A third press will freeze the relative value. The
HOLD and OFFSET
fourth press will delete the HOLD and OFFSET
mode.
11
(pushbutton)
Pushbutton for changing to lower range. On each
press, the new range is displayed fleetingly on
the display in code form (L1 for lowest range, L2
for second range, etc.).
12
(pushbutton)
Pushbutton for changing to higher range. Each
time pressed, the new range will be displayed
fleetingly on the display in code form (L1 for
lowest range, L2 for second range, etc.).
13 AUTO (LED)
Indicator signalling that the multimeter is in
AUTOMATIC mode. In this mode, action on keys
11 and 12 is inoperative.

16 AC-DC (pushbutton)
This key is used for selecting the measurement
mode (DC, rms AC or rms AC + DC).
Indicators below indicate the measurement
mode:
DC: measurement of DC voltages
AC: measurement of RMS AC voltages
DC + AC: measurement of RMS AC+DC voltages.
17
