User's Manual

Connecting devices to the instrument:
1. Connect the test leads to the INPUT HI and LO terminals.
2. Connect the test leads to the device under test (DUT).

To prevent electric shock, test connections must be configured such that the user cannot
come in contact with test leads or any device under test (DUT) that is in contact with the
conductors. It is good practice to disconnect DUTs from the instrument before powering the
instrument. Safe installation requires proper shields, barriers, and grounding to prevent
contact with test leads.
