Dynamic Recording

or turn off voltage or current surges and verifies the
measuring performance without the user being present
during any particular period of time. You can take readings
simultaneously while performing other task.
Use the average reading procedure to even out unstable
inputs, estimating the percentage in time a circuit is
operated, and verifying the circuit performance. The
secondary display shows the time lapse. The maximum time
is 99,999 seconds. When this maximum time is exceeded, the
display indicates “OL”.
