A counter e.m.f. greater than 0.5 V to ground on the + 3.3 V DC / + 5 V DC / + 12 V DC due
to a connected or integrated component can prevent normal operation or even destroy the
computer.
When measuring the counter emf, remember the following:

The computer in question must be turned off and the power supply connector must be
plugged in.
•
During the measurement, all cables from the plant to the computer should be connected.
•
All other components in the plant must be active.
