Operating the Meter

To use a PROBE that is NOT IN MEMORY...

1. If you haven't already, press F1 (MEASURE).
2. The model number of the last probe used will be

displayed on the second line of the display. If you want

to use the same model probe, press Enter.

3. If you want to use a different model probe, select

PROBE by pressing F4. If more than three probes are in

memory, you will have to press F4 twice (MORE, then

PROBE). One of several screens that list all 8700 series

probes will appear.

4. If you see the model of the probe you want to use, press

the appropriate number key. The newer "D" series

probes are listed first.

5. If you do not see the model number you want, use the

7 (BACK) or 8 (NEXT) keys to page forward and

backward until you do. Press the appropriate number

key to select a probe model.

6. A new screen will appear specifying probe model

number, frequency range, field type, maximum

measurement range, and type of response (flat or

shaped). If this information is correct, press F1. If this

information does not match your requirements you need

to select another probe. Press F2 and you will go back

to the Select Probe screen to make another selection.
