Step two: move the cursor to the tolerance through the left and right direction keys, short press the
ENTER
key to enter the custom tolerance interface (-50.00% ~ +50%, resolution 0.01%). The
setting method can refer to the custom setting of frequency.
(4) Sorting mechanism
P1, P2 and P3 are used to indicate whether the main parameter is qualified or not. If it is not
qualified, then OUT flag will be displayed on the Interface of Measurement Display (in the case of
turning on the comparator); then the sorting is completed. If it is qualified, P1~P3 will be
displayed 1/2/3 in the measurement display, and continue to execute secondary parameter
comparison. If the secondary parameter is set, and the secondary parameter is not in the range, it
will be displayed AUX.
AUX is used to indicate whether the secondary parameter is qualified or not. If the primary
parameter is qualified, then unqualified secondary parameter will be displayed on the AUX
display.

12
If one of the main parameter and secondary parameter of NG is not qualified, it will be
displayed OUT as shown in Fig.4-7
The comparison process is as shown in Fig.4-8:

5Basic Performance Indicators
5.1 Measurement Parameter
(1) Main parameter: L: inductance; C: capacitance; R: resistance; Z: impedance.
(2) Secondary parameter: X: reactance; D: loss; Q: quality factor; θ: impedance angle ESR: series
equivalent resistance.
(3) Measurement Parameter combination: the combination of main parameter and any secondary
parameter
5.2 Equivalent Mode
SER: series connection; PAR: parallel connection.
The actual inductance, capacitance and resistance are not the ideal pure reactance or
resistance elements, but the complex impedance elements in series or parallel form; this
instrument calculates the required value according to the series or parallel equivalent circuit with
different equivalent circuit obtaining different results. The two equivalent circuits can be
converted through the formula listed in the table Equivalent Circuit Conversion. Q and D are the
same regardless of what equivalent mode.
Series/parallel Circuit Model
The circuit models and formulas of the six series and parallel equivalent circuits are
described below: capacitance, inductance and resistance. The formula contains all the types of first
measurement and second measurement.

Note: In the component parameters, the subscript s represents the series connection equivalent,
and p represents the parallel connection equivalent. In general, the series equivalent circuit shall
be used for low-value impedance elements (basically high-value capacitance and low-value
inductance); on the contrary, the parallel equivalent circuit shall be used for high-value impedance
elements (basically low-value capacitance and high-value inductance). Meanwhile, it is advisable
to determine the equivalent circuit according to the actual use of the components; for example,
when the capacitor is used for power supply filter, the series equivalent circuit shall be used, while,
when the capacitor is used for LC oscillation circuit, the parallel equivalent circuit shall be used.
5.3 Basic Accuracy
The following data shall be measured under the following conditions:
