4-7 Data Record ( Max., Min. reading )
1) The data record function records the maximum and
minimum readings. Press the " REC Button " ( 3-5, Fig. 1 )
momentarily to start the Data Record function,
shows " REC " on the display.
2)With the " REC " symbol on the display.
a) Press the " REC Button " ( 3-5, Fig. 1 ) momentarily,
