6.4. DC Current Measurement
1.
Connect the black test lead to the COM jack and the red test lead
to the V/Ω/ mA-jack for a max. of 200 mA. For a maximum of 10 A,
move the red test lead to the 10 A jack.
2.
Set the function switch to the DC A range to be used and
connect the test leads in series with the load under
measurement.
Note:
1.
If the current range is not known beforehand, set the FUNCTION
switch to the highest range and work down.
2.
When only the figure "OL" is displayed overrange is being
indicated and the FUNCTION switch must be set at higher
range.
3.
Caution
: The maximum input current is 200 mA, or 10 A
depending upon the jack used. Excessive current will blow the
fuse which must be replaced.
4.
Replace the blown fuse only with a fuse with the same ratings and
dimensions.
6.5. Resistance Measurement
CAUTION!
Making resistance measurements on idle circuits or components and
discharge all capacitors present in the circuit.
1.
Connect the black test lead to the COM jack and the red test lead
to the V/
Ω/-mA- jack. (Note: The polarity of the red test lead is "+")
2.
Set the function switch to the Ω range to be used and connect the
test leads across the resistance under measurement.
