Applications
Introduction
This chapter discusses some applications that will help you use the Meter effectively.
These applications assume you are familiar with the basic operation of the Meter and
have a basic understanding of electronics. A sophisticated understanding of electrical
circuits is not necessary.
Using the Dual Display
Using the dual display effectively and with ingenuity can greatly enhance your test and
measurement capabilities. The dual display allows you to make two measurements on a
common input signal, which in the past would have required that you use two meters or
to make a series of measurements.
To see how easy it is to use the dual display to take two readings on one signal, perform
the following example procedure to measure the voltage and frequency of line power.
1. Press on the Meter.
2. Plug the test leads into the INPUT VZYR HI and LO terminals.
3. Press A to select volts ac for the primary display.
4. Press Q then F to select frequency for the secondary display.
5. Insert the test lead probes into a wall socket. The display will appear similar to
Figure A-1. The actual display depends on the local power supply.
