Making Relative Measurements (Null)
When making null measurements — also known as relative measurements — each reading
is the difference between a null value (stored or measured) and the input signal.
One possible application is to increase the accuracy of a resistance measurement by nulling
the test lead resistance. Nulling the leads is also particularly important prior to making
capacitance measurements.
Null can be set for both auto and manual range settings, but an overload reading cannot
