Capacitance measurements
WARNING: To avoid electric shock discharge the capacitor under test before measuring.
-
Set the function switch to the
position.
-
Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana
plug into the
positive jack.
-
Touch the test probe tips across the part under test. If “
” appears in the display, remove
and discharge the component.
-
Read the capacitance value in the display.
-
The display will indicate the proper decimal point and value.
Note: For very large values of capacitance measurement it can take several minutes before the
final Reading stabilizes.
6.6
Frequency measurements
-
Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana
plug into the
positive jack.
-
Set the function switch to the Hz position.
-
Press Hz/% button to select the frequency (Hz) or duty cycle (%).
-
Touch the test probe tips across the part under test.
-
Read the value on the display.
-
The display will indicate the proper decimal point and value.
-
In Voltage and current mode, press Hz/% button to select the frequency (Hz) or duty cycle (%).
6.7
Temperature measurements
-
Set the function switch to the TEMP position.
-
Insert the temperature probe into the negative COM and the
positive jacks,
observing polarity.
-
Touch the temperature probe head to the device under test. Continue to touch the part under
test with the probe until the reading stabilizes.
-
Read the temperature on the display. The digital reading will indicate the proper decimal point
and value.
-
Use the MODE button to select °C o °F.
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, be sure the thermocouple probe has been removed before
changing to another function.
6.8
Continuity measurements
-
Insert the temperature probe into the negative COM terminal and the red test lead into the
positive terminal.
-
Set the function switch to the
position.
-
Use the MODE function to select continuity
. The display icons will change when the
MODE button is pressed.
-
Touch the test probe tips across the circuit r component under test.
-
If the resistance is < 30 Ω, a tone will sound.
