Instruction Manual
The 2-data-point method allows the user to use two known points to convert from one scale to another. For 
example, to convert from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius, enter two (2) known points, such as 32°F = 0°C 
and 0F = 17.77°C. The meter will automatically compute scale and offset and display the correct value.

DESCRIPTION 
 READING CONFIGURATION 
  Reading Scale & Offset: 
“RDG.1=0” Direct Format 
“RDG.1=1” 2-Coordinate format 
  Decimal point effect: 
“RDG.2=0” Active 
“RDG.2=1” Independent 
 Display Brightness: 
“RDG.3=0” Normal 
“RDG.3=1”  50% of Normal 
  Leading Zeros on Display: 
“RDG.4=0” Displayed 
“RDG.4=1”
 Not Displayed 
“RDG.5=0”  Unit of Temperature: 
“RDG.5=1”  NOT USED WITH 
“RDG.5=2” STRAIN GAUGE 
  Reading Scale & Offset Functions: 
“RDG.6=0”  Disables Reading Scale and Offset 
(RDG SC=1.0, RDG OF=0.0) 
“RDG.6=1”  Enables Reading Scale and Offset 
(Uses scale and offset values entered by user) 
 Resetting Mode: 
“RDG.7=0”
  Grounding P2-5 causes Hard Reset (RESET 2) 
“RDG.CNF”: 
“RDG.7=1”  Grounding P2-5 causes Peak/Valley (HI/LO) Reset 
* The ‘MIN’ button allows you to sequence through RDG.1, RDG.2, RDG.3, RDG.4, RDG.5, RDG.6, and RDG.7. 
The ‘MAX’ button allows you to select the “0” or “1” state for each “RDG” condition. 
The ‘MENU’ button stores the selected values for all “RDG.CNF” condition(s) changed and advances the meter to 
“RD SC”. Do not press the ‘MENU’ button after each change within the submenu or the meter will advance to the 
next menu item. 
Every underlined “0” or “1” state is the factory preset value. 
9.2.3 RDG SC (Reading Scale) AND RDG OF (Reading Offset) 
Typically, this would be used only when you cannot connect a known load to your meter, you require a display with 
3 or more positions to the right of the decimal point position, you have scaled your meter using Input Scale and 
Offset (“IN.SC.OF”) and want to enter a constant multiplying factor, or you have an extremely large offset. 
If “RDG.1=0” were chosen, then you go automatically into “RDG SC” and “RDG OF” where: 
“RDG SC” is reading scale from -99999 to +499999 where you set the display to “1.00000” and “RDG OF” is 
reading offset from -99999 to 999999 when you set the display to “000000”. 
When “RDG SC” is displayed, press the ‘MIN’ button to see the previously-set value. Process measurement scale 
is set to “1.00000” using the ‘MIN/MAX’ buttons. Store by pressing the ‘MENU’ button.
