4.13 AC+DC Current Measurements
CAUTION: Do not make 10A current measurements for
longer than 30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may cause
damage to the meter and/or the test leads.
- Insert the black test lead banana plug into the
negative COM jack.
- For current measurements up to 6000μA AC+DC,
set the function switch to the μA position and insert
the red test lead banana plug into the μA/mA jack.
- For current measurements up to 600mA AC+DC, set
the function switch to the mA position and insert the
red test lead banana plug into the μA/mA jack.
- For current measurements up to 10A AC+DC, set
the function switch to the 10A position and insert the
red test lead banana plug into the 10A jack.
- Press the MODE button to indicate “ ” on the
display.
- Read the current in the display.
4.14 Using RANGE
Press the RANGE key to activate the manual mode and to
disable the Autorange function. The message “Manual
Range” appears on the upper left part of the display instead
of “Auto Range”. In manual mode, press the RANGE key to
change measuring range: the relevant decimal point will
change its position. The RANGE key is not active in
positions % Temp 10A In Autorange
mode, the instrument selects the most appropriate ratio for
carrying out measurement. If a reading is higher than the
maximum measurable value, the indication “O.L” appears
on the display. Press and hold the RANGE key for more
than 1 second to exit the manual mode and restore the
Autorange mode.
