Measurement
1. Press
“
L/C/R
” button to select capacitance measurement.
2. Connect the BNC ends of red clip or optional SMD Tweezers to
“
SENSE +
” and “
FORCE +
”, respectively.
3. Connect the BNC ends of black clip or optional SMD Tweezers to
“
SENSE -
” and “
FORCE -
”, respectively.
4. Connect the test clips to the component leads as required, or use
optional SMD Tweezers to measure SMD type component.
5. Press
“
FREQ
” button to select test frequency.
6. Press
“
D/Q/
θ
” button to select D factor for secondary display.
7. Remove your hands from clips then read the display readings for
capacitance value and dissipation factor.
WARNING
To avoid electrical hazards, discharge the capacitor to be tested before
