If the edges of the signal are too steep or its peak factor is
too large, the device displays OL.
2.2.3. Freezing the measurement
If you want to freeze the display of a measurement, press
the HOLD key.
The HOLD symbol is displayed.
The device continues to make measurements, but the display
is frozen. To release it, press the HOLD key again.
2.2.4. Search for maximum
To search for a maximum, for example a spike lasting at
least 100 ms, press the HOLD (MAX > 2s) key for more
than two seconds.
The M
symbol is then displayed; the device starts making
AX
measurements a few seconds later.
The device compares each new measurement to the one
displayed. If the new measurement is greater than the old, it
replaces it in the display.
To return to the real-time display mode, press the HOLD
(MAX > 2s) key again.
2.2.5. De-activation of automatic switching off
In order to save the batteries, the device switches itself off
automatically at the end of 10 minutes if the user has not
pressed a key (unless the MAX function is active).
