A/source (4mm safety socket)
Connection of measuring cables for:
– current measurement, max. 1 ampere
– 2 wire resistance measurement
– 4 wire resistance measurement (SOURCE)
– 4 wire temperature measurement by a PT-temperature
sensor (SOURCE)
– continuity test up to 10 Ω
the maximum current may amount to 1 A

loW (4mm safety connectors)
Ground connection for inputs
24
and
26
. Both connectors are
high-impedance DC-isolated.
27
Fuse in the current measuring circuit
The shunt is fuse-protected. The fuse (FF) is located in a fuse
holder. The measuring circuit is designed for a maximum al-
lowable measurement current of 1 ampere.
replacement of the fuse is only allowed, after the
instrument was disconnected from the mains!
A repair of a defective fuse or bypassing the fuse is
very dangerous and absolutely prohibited!
10.9 replacement of the measuring circuit fuse
The measuring circuit fuse
27
is accessible from the front panel.
A replacement of the fuse is only allowed, if no voltage is applied
to the measuring connectors! Therefore all terminals V/SENSE
24
, ground
25
and A/SOURCE
26
should be disconnected. The
cover of the fuse holder has to be turned ccw with a screw driver
having a suitable blade. As the cover can be turned it has to be
pushed by the srew driver into the fuse holder. The cover with
the fuse can then be easily taken out. Replace the defective fuse
by a new fuse of the same type having the same trip current. A
repair of a damaged fuse or the use of other means for bypassing
the fuse is very dangerous and absolutely prohibited! Damages
incurred will void the warranty.

interface
The USB/RS-232 interface is located at the rear panel of the
HM8112-3. The interface of HM8112-3 can receive data (com-
mands) from an external device (PC) or send data (measurement
values and parameters). The following option is available: HO880
IEEE-488 (GPIB). In order to avoid the warranty seal broken we
recommend the installation ex factory.

11 scanner card Ho112 (option)
miscellaneous:
With built-in Scanner Card HO112 voltage measurements are only
possible up to 100 V. That means that the 600 V range of the voltage
measurement functions is automatically inactive.
Pin 1 is the ground connection. Channel BP is used to supply the
other channels with current, e.g. for suppling sensors, LEDs etc.
