The 270 Series 4 has the three Amp-Clamp scales.

Controls include: Ohms zero adjustment, AC - DC Voltage selector switch,

and a 12 position Function / Range selector switch.

The off or "transit" position is at the 500 MA position on the function switch.

The back of the case has an "adapter lock" for use with "Add-A-Tester" accessories.

The rear case now has rubber feet instead of raised bumps at the four corners.
