5-9. Temperature Measurements
1. Set the function switch to the Temp position.
2. Insert the Temperature Probe into the input jacks,
making sure to observe the correct polarity.
3. Press the MODE button to indicate ºF or ºC
4. Touch the Temperature Probe head to the part whose
temperature you wish to measure. Keep the probe
touching the part under test until the reading stabilizes
(about 30 seconds).
5. Read the temperature in the display.
Note: The temperature probe is fitted with a type K mini
connector. A mini connector to banana connector adaptor
is supplied for connection to the input banana jacks.

5-10. Capacitance Measurements
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under est and
discharge all capacitors before taking any capacitance measurements. Remove the
batteries and unplug the line cords.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
Ω CAP
position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative
COM
jack.
Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive
V
jack.
3. Press the
MODE
button to indicate “
nF
” on the
display.
4. Touch the test leads to the capacitor to be tested.
5. The test may take up to 3 minutes or more for large
capacitors to charge. Wait until the readings settle before
ending the test.
6. Read the capacitance value in the display
5-11. Frequency/Duty Cycle Measurements (Electronic)
1. Set the rotary function switch to the “
Hz%
” position.
2. Press the Hz/% button to indicate “
Hz
” in the display.
3. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative
COM
jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive
Hz
jack.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test.
5. Read the frequency on the display.
6. Press the
Hz/%
button again to indicate “%” on the
display.
7. Read the % of duty cycle on the display.
5-12. Autoranging/Manual Range Selection
When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into Autoranging.
This automatically selects the best range for the measurements being made and is
generally the best mode for most measurements. For measurement situations requiring
that a range be manually selected, perform the following:
1. Press the
RANGE
key. The “
AUTO
” display indicator will turn off.
2. Press the
RANGE
key to step through the available ranges until you select the range
you want.
3. To exit the Manual Ranging mode and return to Autoranging, press and hold the
RANGE
key for 2 seconds.
Note:
Manual ranging does not apply for the Capacitance and Frequency functions.
