12.3 DC/AC voltage Measurement
1. Set the function dial to the required setting:
2. “DC” will show on the display.
Æ
Short press the
SEL
/
button to switch to AC, “AC”
will show on the display.
3. Connect the test leads to the
terminals:
Æ
Red test lead to the
terminal.
Æ
Black test lead to the
COM
terminal.
4. Connect the two measuring
probes in parallel to the object
that you want to measure (e.g.
generator or circuit).
Æ
The measured value will appear on the display.
5. After taking a measurement, remove the leads from the measured object and
switch off the DMM.
The “V/AC” range has an input resistance of ≥10 MΩ. This means that
there is almost no load on the circuit.
DC voltage measurements (V ): If a minus “-” sign appears in front of
the value, the measured voltage is negative (or the measuring lines are
swapped).
The “V DC/AC” voltage range has an input resistance of >10 MOhm; the
“mV DC” range has an input resistance of >100 MOhm.
