Virtual Ground 

Use the Virtual Ground connector when performing in-circuit measurements to 
eliminate the influence of grounded components.  Connect this point to the circuit 
Ground.   

Important: Do NOT 

use the virtual ground when the tested circuit is under the 

power. 
 

Slide Switch 

The slide switch can optionally be used to measure DC voltage up to 8V by 
enabling a 1/10 voltage divider.   

Important:

 The slide switch should be turned off once the voltage measurement is 

completed. If it is not turned off incorrect results in automatic mode may occur. The 
slide switch is not an automatic control option.
