The Digital Multimeter Mode of the Power Prowler measures DC voltage,
AC voltage, continuity, and resistance. For voltage and resistance, the
Power Prowler will provide a measurement as well as minimum and
maximum values.
Using the Multimeter
▪
Press the red
Power
button
to turn the unit on.
▪
Connect the appropriate adapter(s) for your application to the Power
Prowler, and then connect to the cable under test.
▪
Select the Multimeter icon by pressing the
Left/Right
buttons, then
press the
Enter
button or press the
DMM
soft key
.
▪
Using the
Left/Right
buttons, cycle through the DMM functions to
read each measurement [Direct Current (DC) Voltage, Alternating
Current (AC), Low Impedance Alternating Current (LoZ AC), Continuity,
and Resistance (Ohms)].
▪
DC mode measures direct current input voltage.
▪
AC mode measures the RMS (root mean square) value of
alternating current voltage.
▪
LoZ AC or Low Impedance AC Mode
sets input impedance
to about 1,000 Ohms and measures the RMS value of alternating
current voltages. This reduces the chances of false readings due
to probes picking up AC voltage before they are connected to the
test circuit.
▪
Continuity Mode identifies continuity by measuring the resis-
tance between input probes and displays either OL (overload) for
DIGITAL MULTIMETER OPERATIONs (DMM)
