1.SLACDC pin is used to set initial mode (AC or DC) for voltage and current

measurement. Using SLACDC pin to switch AC or DC will not reset enabled functions

like max/min, manual/auto range….etc. If you want to have reset function during the

change between AC and DC, please use FC1~FC5 and KEY.

The other combinations of FC1, FC2, FC3, and FC4 are for ADP modes. In ADP modes

, if FC5 is LOW, the minus sign on the LCD panel will not be displayed. And if KEY pin

is floating, the buzzer beeps when the input signal is overflow. The ADP mode function

is summarized below.

can be cancelled by changing the measurement mode, pressing RANGE, or push HOLD

again.
