Chapter 4 Viewing Measurement Values
Here is an efficiency and loss measurement example.
Before measuring, perform the preparations in "Chapter 3 Measurement Preparations" (p. 23)), and
make the appropriate connections and settings.
Example. The input and output sides of the switching power supply are connected to CH 1 and CH 2 of
the instrument, respectively.

Calculation Formula Setting
Wiring Mode 1
[1P2W] × 4 systems
Set Pin1 to P1,
and Pout1 to P2
Calculation Formula
η1 = 100 × |P2|/|P1|
Loss1 = |P1| - |P2|
