Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: auto- comb. form¹, ranging n.¹

Etymology: < auto- comb. form¹ + ranging n.¹

A. n.

Automatic ranging (ranging n.¹ 2); spec. the automatic selection by an instrument of the range most appropriate for the magnitude of the quantity being measured.
