Fluke 179 AutoRange -> changing unit prefix after removing leads

Fluke replied: I need i firmware update. they can update it beside a calibration which i have to pay (82,50 EUR).

Hmm, disappointing reply from Fluke.  At minimum, I expected them to say it would be free to upgrade the firmware and if you want calibration, then it would cost extra.

Maybe ask Fluke to see what the cost of a firmware upgrade is without calibration?

I should have made it clear; no, in my case the readings drop to near zero and mV: it does not show 245mVac

One more question regarding the behaviour of yours.  Does it beep each time when it drops to near zero reading?

Yes...
