The instrument can source DC voltage, DC current (current sink), resistance,
thermocouple, resistance temperature detector, and frequency/pulse signals.
WARNING
To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not apply a voltage of 30 V or
more to the output terminals.
Also ensure that the circuit-to-ground voltage does not exceed 30V.
Be sure to use the supplied lead cables.
CAUTION
Do not apply any voltage to the output terminals for ranges other than 20 mA
SINK. Otherwise the internal circuitry may be damaged.
The voltage drop component due to the resistance (approximately 0.1 Ω on a
round-trip basis) of the lead cables becomes an error on the instrument.
Precaution of connecting the output terminals
CAUTION
Tighten the output terminal knob by hand.
Do not use a tool or the like. Tightening the knob using a tool or the like may
damage the terminal, resulting in the disability of normal generation.
Before storing the instrument in the carrying case, tighten the output terminal
knob.
If the instrument is stored in the carrying case while the output terminal knob is
not tightened completely and is protruding, an external force may be applied to
the terminal, thus causing damage to the terminal and resulting in the disability
of generation.
