DSO8000E Series HandHeld Oscilloscope User Manual 74
To measure an AC current which is larger than 600 mA, do the following:
1) Press the F1 key to select A and then DC appears on the screen. The unit on the main reading
screen is mA.
2) Press F3 key to switch to10A measurement, the unit on the main reading screen is A.
3) Press the F1 key once and AC will display on the bottom of the screen.
4) Insert the black lead into the COM banana jack input and the red lead into the 10A banana jack
input.
5) Connect the red and black leads to the measured points and the AC current value of the
measured points will be displayed on the screen.
6) Press F3 to return to 600 mA measurement.
Then, the screen will look like the following figure 7-11.

Taking a Relative Measurement
A currently measured result relative to the defined reference value is displayed in a relative
measurement.
The following example shows how to take a relative measurement. At first, it is required to
acquire a reference value.
1) Press the OHM.
2) Insert the black lead into the COM banana jack input and the red lead into the V/O/C banana jack
input.
3) Connect the red and black test leads to the resistor. The resistance value is shown on the screen
in Ohm.
4) When the reading leveling off, press F2 key and then ||/△is displayed on the top of the screen.
The saved reference value is displayed beside.
Then, the screen will look like the following figure 7-12.
