1.1 Voltage Measurement
A reconfigurable voltage divider automatically provides a suitable range in voltage
measurement mode. The following table summarizes the full scale ranges in each
ES51982 has a default auto power off function. If the meter idles for more than 10
minutes, the chip automatically turns the power off. When this happens, the state of the
meter is saved. In order to disable auto power off function, power on the meter when
any of the push function, except for HOLD, is pressed down. In addition, when RS232
output is active, the auto power-off function is also disabled. The APO sign on the LCD
panel indicates whether the auto power-off is enabled or not.
Note: Powering on the meter while pressing HOLD turns on all LCD segment until
HOLD is pressed again.
1.9 Sleep
The meter enters sleep mode after auto power off. The SLEEP pin asserts low (-3V) in
the sleep mode, and asserts high (+3V, not 0V) after re-power on.
1.10 Re-power on
After auto power-off, pushing any of the push function or changing the rotary mode can
turn on the meter again. If the meter is re-powered on by changing the rotary mode, the
saved state is cleared. If the meter is re-powered on by push functions, the chip restores
the saved state and enters HOLD mode. The LCD displays the saved value.
2. Measurement Mode Switching
Measurement mode depends on the logic level of FC1, FC2, FC3, FC4, FC5, and KEY.
When FC5 is HIGH, the measurement modes are listed in the following table.

Note: Temperature measurement mode takes input signal from ADP pin. In temperature
measurement mode, VBAR pin is used to control the right most digit point on the
LCD panel. When VBAR is LOW, this digit point is displayed.
3. Push function
3.1 HOLD
HOLD mode makes the meter stop updating the LCD panel. This mode can be nested in
most of the special modes. Enabling HOLD function in automatic mode makes the
meter switch to manual mode, but the full scale range remains the same. HOLD function
can be cancelled by changing the measurement mode, pressing RANGE, or push HOLD
again.
3.2 Range
RANGE pin switches to and from automatic and manual mode, and while in manual
mode, changes the full scale range. The following figure shows the state transition.

4. Serial Data Output
The serial data sent to SDO pin twice every A/D conversion cycle. The data format
complies with JIS 7Bits transmission code with a baud rate of 19230. The host can use
RS232 interface to read the data. A single data packet includes a start bit (always 0), 7
data bits, an odd parity check bit, and a stop bit (always 1). The high and low voltage
levels correspond to DGND and V- respectively. SDO remains at 1 (high) when it is
inactive. Hence the start bit (0) could be used as the triggering signal to begin the
reading process. The following figure shows the data format of a single packet. The
LSB is sent first and the MSB is sent last.

The meter always outputs the current input value to the serial port in spite of HOLD
mode. Each block is repeated twice in one conversion cycle. The detailed data format of
each packet is listed below.
4.1 FUNCTUON
This packet indicates the measurement mode of the meter. The following table
summarizes the transmitted code for each mode. Note that the encoding of this packet is
different from the encoding of FC1-FC4 switch.

Because the cycle time of measurement for continuity/diode mode is only 50ms, the
least significant digit may not be accurate.
4.4 STATUS

5. Miscellaneous
The conditions which the meter turns on the buzzer include:
(1) Changing measurement mode generates one beep.
(2) Pressing any of the push junctions generates one beep, if the function is valid.
(3) Power on and re-power on generate one beep.
(4) Input overflow in voltage and current mode generates one beep every 0.3 seconds
(or 3.33 beeps per second.)
(5) Continuity(diode) check generates a continuous 2KHz beep whenever the
measurement is less then 25Ω(0.25V)
(6) Auto power off generates a 2KHz beep which lasts for 1.5 seconds.
