Anyone know of a Digital Multi Meter that displays an infinity symbol for overflow?

Ouch, -1, OF, or OFL are commonly used, but does any DMM use the infinity symbol for overflow or out-of-range values?

A bet is on the line here.

I've used and seen MANY multimeters, and I've never seen the inf symbol for overflow.

Same here. Why add in support on the LCD display of the DMM for an infinity symbol when the manufacturers can save money and just use one of the existing characters to show that the reading you're trying to take is out of the selected range (or max range of the DMM)?

I've used a ton of different ones from a ton of different manufacturers, and not one DMM used the infinity symbol. An open really isn't "infinate resistance" anyways.

exactly... it's not infinity, so why would they display infinity.

I cant think of any off hand. All of mine flash zeros of the display blanks out.
