appear in the display.

7. Press and hold the MAX MIN key for 2 seconds to exit the mode.

Notes:

The average value is a true average and averages up to 3000 values. If the 3000 limit is exceeded,

the AVG indicator will flash and no further averaging will take place. The max and min values will

continue to update.

If the HOLD key is pressed during min max recording, the recording is halted until the HOLD key is

pressed again.

Relative Mode

The relative mode displays the difference between the measured value and the value of a stored

reference.

1. Press the REL key to enter the Relative mode.

2. The value in the display when the REL key is pressed will become the stored reference value

and the display will indicate zero or a value close to zero (since the measured value and the

reference value are the same at this point).

3. All subsequent measurements will be displayed as a value relative to the stored value.

4. The reference value may also be a value that was stored into memory using the SET Relative

procedure (see the Setting a Relative Reference paragraph).

5. To use the SET relative value, press the SET key while in the Relative mode.

6. To exit the Relative mode, press and hold the REL key for 2 seconds.
