TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, disconnect both test probes from
any source of voltage before making a temperature measurement.
1. If you wish to measure temperature in
o
F, set the function switch to
the
o
F range. If you wish to measure temperature in
o
C, set the
function switch to the
o
C range.
2 Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (COM) jack and
the red test lead banana plug into the positive (V) jack, making sure to
observe the correct polarity.
3.
Touch the Temperature Probe head to the part whose temperature you
wish to measure. Keep the probe touching the part under test until the
reading stabilizes (about 30 seconds).
4.
Read the temperature in the display. The digital reading will indicate
the proper decimal point and value.
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, be sure the thermocouple has
been removed before changing to another measurement function.
