Setting the Reading Rate
You can select three reading rates for the AC and DC voltage, AC and DC
current, and resistance measurement which are Slow (S), Medium (M), and
Fast (F)
The selected rate allows you to maximize either the measurement speed or
noise rejection, which affects the measurement accuracy. Refer to Table 1- 5.
The annunciator S, M, and F (slow, medium and fast respectively) are located
at the corner left of the display indicates the selected rate on the primary
display. Refer to Figure 1- 20.

Slow 5 ½ 119,999
Medium 4 ½ 39,999
Fast 3 ½ 3,999
Notes:
1 In VDC 1000 V range, the display counts is limited up to 1200.00, 1200.0 and 1200 for slow,
medium, and fast reading rate respectively.
2 In VAC 750 V range, 1000 V RMS is measureable.
In the dBm function, the display counts is 0.01 dBm for slow or medium reading rate and
0.1 dBm for fast reading rate.
