Capacitance Measurements
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, discharge the capacitor before measuring.
1.
Slide the input shutter to the up position.
2. Rotate the function switch to the
capacitance
position.
3.
Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative
COM
jack.
Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive
jack.
4.
Touch the black test probe tip to one side of the device.
Touch the red test probe tip to the other side of the device.
5. Read the capacitance value in the display.
Note: For very large values of capacitance measurement time can be several
seconds before the final reading stabilizes.
Note: The Zero feature removes stray test lead capacitance to improve the
accuracy of low value capacitance measurements. To perform a zero, Press
and hold the
MODE ZERO
button for two beeps. The display will zero. The
offset value is now stored and is removed from all measurements.

Frequency and Duty Ratio Measurements
1.
Slide the input shutter to the up position.
2.
Rotate the function switch to the
Hz %
Position.
3.
Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative
COM
jack.
Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive
Hz
jack.
4.
Touch the black test probe tip to one side of the device.
Touch the red test probe tip to the other side of the device.
5.
Read the Frequency value on the upper large display.
Read the Duty Ratio on the lower small display.
6. Press
the
MODE
button to display the Duty Ratio on the large
display.
