Connections
Assuming factory default conditions, the basic procedure is as follows:
1. Connect test leads to the INPUT HI and LO terminals of the Model 2000. Either the
front or rear inputs can be used; place the INPUTS button in the appropriate position.
2. Select the FREQ or PERIOD function.
3. Connect test leads to the source as shown in Figure 2-7.
CAUTION Do not exceed 1000V peak between INPUT HI and INPUT LO or instru-
ment damage may occur.
4. Take a reading from the display.
See Section 3—Measurement Options for information that explains the configuration options
for frequency and period measurements.
