Capacitance Measurements
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test
and discharge all capacitors before taking any capacitance measurements.
Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative
COM
jack.
Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive
V
jack.
3. Touch the test leads to the capacitor to be tested.
4. Read the capacitance value in the display
Frequency/Duty Cycle Measurements
1. Set the rotary function switch to
Hz
position.
2. Select ACV with the
MODE
button
3. Press the
Hz/%
button to indicate “
Hz
” in the display.
4. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative
COM
jack and the
red test lead banana plug into the positive
Hz
jack.
5. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test.
6. Read the frequency on the display.
7. Press the
Hz/%
button again to indicate “
%
” on the display. Read the %
of duty cycle on the display.
Temperature Measurements
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, disconnect both test probes from any
source of voltage before making a temperature measurement.
1. Set the function switch to
°C / °F
.
2. Insert the Temperature Probe into the negative
COM
and the
V
jacks,
making sure to observe the correct polarity.
3. Select °C or °F with the
MODE
button.
4. 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).
