Scope and Multimeter Operations
Introduction
This section describes the basic operation and navigation of the
Scope Multimeter function.
Selecting Scope Multimeter provides access to all the tools needed
for performing electrical circuit tests and monitoring signals. The
Scope Multimeter function works interactively with other functions.
Selecting “View Meter” from a Guided Component Test or Scanner Test opens the
Scope Multimeter function.
In situations where the testing connection points are not easily accessible, the
Scope Module easily separates from the diagnostic tool (connected via extended
length USB cable) allowing you to monitor the results remotely.

9.2 Safety
Risk of electrical shock.
• Read the Safety Information provided for important warnings on the use of
this product
• This product is intended for Measurement Category I (for example,
automotive 12V systems), do not use this product for Measurement
Categories II, III, and IV.
• Measurement Category I is for performing measurements on circuits not
directly connected to MAINS or MAINS circuits (an example of a MAINS
circuit is 120V AC or 240V AC household or industrial electricity), do not
connect this product to MAINS or MAINS circuits.
• Do not apply the Black Ground Lead to test points other than ground/
system return/vehicle chassis.
Electrical shock can cause personal injury, equipment damage, and/or circuit
damage.
IMPORTANT
Maximum rated transient over voltage impulse is 500 volts, do not
exceed the rated transient over voltage.
