5 Operation
Note
For very large capacitance values, it may take several minutes for the meas-
urement to settle and the final reading to stabilize.
5.7 Frequency measurements
1. Set the function switch to the
position.
2. Insert the black probe lead into the negative COM terminal and the red probe
lead into the positive V terminal.
3. Press and hold the
button to select frequency measurement. The Hz
unit indicator should be displayed.
4. Touch the tips of the probe across the part under test.
5. Read the frequency value on the display.
5.8 Type K temperature measurements
1. Set the function switch to the
position.
2. While observing the correct polarity, insert the thermocouple leads into the
negative COM terminal and the positive
terminal.
3. Touch the tip of the thermocouple to the part under test. Keep the thermo-
couple tip on the part until the reading on the display stabilizes.
4. Read the temperature value on the display.
5. To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the thermocouple leads before turning
the function switch to another position.
Note
To change the temperature unit, see section 5.14 Temperature units, page 21.
5.9 Continuity
WARNING
Do not do diode, resistance or continuity tests before you have removed the
power from capacitors and other devices under test during a measurement.
Injury to persons can occur.
1. Set the function switch to the
position.
