Setting reading hold from the front panel
Reading hold is enabled by pressing SHIFT and then TRIGGER until the HOLD indicator turns on. To

Perform the following steps to change the sensitivity band for reading hold:
1. Press the SHIFT and CONFIG (MENU) keys to display the MENU options.
2. Use the â—„ and â–º keys to display TRIG and press ENTER.
3. Use the â—„ and â–º keys to display READ HOLD and press ENTER,

Data buffer
The instrument can store up to 2000 readings in its volatile memory. The readings are stored in a
first-in-first-out (FIFO) order. All the readings are lost when power is turned off.
You can store readings from all measurement functions, math operations, and reading hold. The
MEM indicator on the display turns on when the data store is enabled from the front panel.
Front-panel operation
Before using the data store, select and configure a measurement function.
Perform the following steps to store and recall readings:
1. Set the number of readings to store:
a. Press the SHIFT and CONFIG (MENU) keys to display the MENU options.
b. Use the â—„ and â–º keys to display TRIG SYS and press ENTER.
c. Use the â—„ and â–º keys to display STORE RDGS and press ENTER.
d. Use the â—„, â–º, â–², and â–¼ keys to specify the number of readings to store (1 to 2000) and
press ENTER.
2. Press STORE to start the storage process. The MEM display indicator turns on while readings
are being stored; wait for the storage process to finish (MEM indicator turns off) before recalling
stored readings.
3. Press SHIFT and STORE (RECALL) to display the first stored reading:
• To scroll through the stored readings, use the ◄ and ► keys.
• To specify the reading to display, press the ▼ key and use the ◄, ►, ▲, and ▼ keys to select the
reading number, and then press ENTER.
4. When finished, press ESC.
When using auto triggering, readings are stored into the data buffer immediately after the STORE key
is pressed. The MEM indicator turns off when the specified number of readings are stored. See
Auto
triggering (on page 3-29) for details.
When using external triggering, pressing the TRIGGER key after the STORE key is pressed allows
the first reading to be stored in the data buffer. Each subsequent TRIGGER key-press stores another
reading until the specified number of readings are stored (MEM indicator turns off). See
External
triggering (on page 3-29) for details.
