• Frequency

  Expressed in the unit of Hz (hertz). Commercial frequency of 50Hz/60Hz can be measured.

• Capacitor

  Capacitor capacity (electrostatic capacity) is measured and expressed in the unit of F (farad), μF, etc.

• Continuity check

  The LED lights up when the measuring object is electrically conducting.

• Continuity buzzer

  The buzzer sounds when the measuring object is electrically conducting.

• Battery check

  Battery voltage is measured and assessed by running a given current.

• Auto power off

  Power is automatically turned off when a certain time has elapsed after power-up. Some models have a function to cancel this function.

• Data hold

  A value indicated on the display is fixed. It is fixed even after the test lead is removed, and can be used as a record for reference purposes.

• Range hold

  The range is fixed in the measurement of varying voltage and current which is difficult to read in the auto range.

• Measurement of relative value

  A certain measured value is assumed as 0 and measured values after that are expressed by positive or negative values relative the value fixed as 0.

• Low power ohm

  Resistance is measured by applying voltage of approximately 0.4V or less on a measuring object. It is characterized by the fact that the semiconductor does not conduct at approximately 0.4V or less even in forward direction.

• Backlight

  Allows indicator reading in a dark place.
