f) Frequency measurement
The DMM can be used to measure the frequency of a signal volt-
age (supports frequencies from 10 Hz to 10 MHz). The maximum
input is 20 Vrms. This mode is not suitable for taking measure-
mentsonmainsvoltages.Observetheinputspecicationsinthe
technical data.
Proceed as follows to measure frequency:
- Switch the DMM on and select “Hz” mode. “Hz” will appear on
the display.
- Insert the red test lead into the Hz measurement socket (G)
and the black test lead into the COM measurement socket (H).
- Connect the two measuring probes to the object that you want
to measure (e.g. signal generator or circuit).
- The frequency and corresponding unit will be displayed.
- After taking a measurement, remove the leads from the meas-
ured object and switch the DMM off.
g) Measurement of pulse duration in %
The DMM can be used the ratio of the pulse duration of an alter-
nating voltage signal’s positive half wave as a percentage of the
entire period. The maximum input is 20 Vrms. This mode is not
suitable for taking measurements on mains voltages. Observe
theinputspecicationsinthetechnicaldata.
Proceed as follows to measure the pulse duration in %:
- Switch the DMM on and select the “Hz” measurement range.
“Hz” will appear on the display. Press the “SELECT” button (I)
on the rotary control. “%” will appear on the display.
- Insert the red test lead into the Hz measurement socket (G)
and the black test lead into the COM measurement socket (H).
- Connect the two measuring probes to the object that you want
to measure (e.g. signal generator or circuit).
- The pulse duration of the positive half wave is shown as a
percentage value on the display.
- After taking a measurement, remove the leads from the meas-
ured object and switch the DMM off.
