3.1 Ngukur DC Voltage (DCV)

  1. Set the rotary dial to the desired DCV range (e.g., 200m, 2, 20, 200, 1000). Choose a range higher than the expected voltage.
  2. Connect the red lead to the positive (+) side of the circuit and the black lead to the negative (-) side.
  3. Baca voltage nilai dina tampilan.

3.2 Ngukur AC Voltage (ACV)

  1. Set the rotary dial to the desired ACV range (e.g., 200m, 2, 20, 200, 750). Choose a range higher than the expected voltage.
  2. Sambungkeun kabel uji kana voltase ACtage source. Polarity does not matter for AC voltage.
  3. Baca voltage nilai dina tampilan.

3.3 Ngukur Résistansi (Ω)

  1. Pastikeun sirkuit atanapi komponén parantos dipareuman énergina sateuacan ngukur résistansi.
  2. Set the rotary dial to the desired Ω range (e.g., 200, 2K, 20K, 200K, 2M, 20M, 200M).
  3. Sambungkeun lead test kana komponén anu bakal diukur.
  4. Maca nilai résistansi dina tampilan.

3.4 Measuring DC Current (DCA)

  1. Pastikeun sirkuit de-energized.
  2. Set the rotary dial to the desired DCA range (e.g., 200µ, 2m, 20m, 200m, 10A).
  3. penting: For currents up to 200mA, use the 'V-Ω-mA' jack for the red lead. For currents up to 10A, use the '10A' jack.
  4. Break the circuit and connect the multimeter in series with the load. The current must flow through the multimeter.
  5. Re-energize the circuit and read the current value.

3.5 Measuring AC Current (ACA)

  1. Pastikeun sirkuit de-energized.
  2. Set the rotary dial to the desired ACA range (e.g., 200µ, 2m, 20m, 200m, 10A).
  3. penting: For currents up to 200mA, use the 'V-Ω-mA' jack for the red lead. For currents up to 10A, use the '10A' jack.
  4. Break the circuit and connect the multimeter in series with the load.
  5. Re-energize the circuit and read the current value.

3.6 Measuring Capacitance (CX)

  1. Pastikeun kapasitor discharged pinuh saméméh nguji.
