To Measure AC Current 
In view of AC current measurement function, the following part demonstrated how to 
link the measurement connection and how to choose measurement functions. The 
following practice will gradually guide you to be familiar with the AC Current 
measurement technique.

Basic measurement: 
1.    Connect test leads as Figure 1-17 shown. Red test lead connects the HI Terminal, 
Black test lead connects the LO Terminal. 
2.    Press          to select the DC Current measurement function. 
3.    According to the current measuring scope, choose the correct range. 
4.    Setup the DC impedance. 
Press     Æ    Filter , to setup the AC Filter Bandwidth. Default value of the AC 
Filter Bandwidth will be “Mid”(Middle), this parameter had been setup, and the users 
may carry on the AC Voltage measurement directly without modification. 
7.  Set the Null setting value 
Null computing will be an option operation, could be setup in accordance with
