3. Connect test leads to the test object.
- The instrument detects resistance, continuity, diode and capacitance,
and automatically adjusts the measuring range.
- The measured value is shown on the LC display.
Manual measuring mode (testo 760-2/-3)
1. Disable AUTO RCDC measuring mode: press [] <1 s.
2. Switch between resistance, capacitance, continuity and diode test:
press [] <1 s.
- The measured value is shown on the LC display.
> Switch back to AUTO RCDC mode: press [] >2 s.
7.5. Frequency measurement (testo 760-1)
✓ Instrument is switched on.
1. Connect test leads: black test lead to the COM jack; red test lead to the
V/Ω/diode/capacitance jack.
- The instrument is in AUTO V mode.
2. Activate measuring mode for frequency measurement: press [Hz] <1 s.
3. Connect test leads to the test object.
- The measured value is shown on the LC display.
> Switch back to AUTO V mode: press [Hz] <1 s.
7.6. Frequency measurement/duty cycle
(testo 760-2/-3)
✓ Instrument is switched on.
1. Connect test leads: black test lead to COM jack, red test lead to
V/Ω/diode/capacitance jack.
- The instrument is in AUTO V mode
2. Activate measuring mode for frequency measurement: press [LPF
Hz/%] >2 s.
3. Activate the mode for duty cycle: press [LPF Hz/%] <1 s.
4. Connect test leads to the test object.
- The measured value is shown on the LC display.
> Switch back to AUTO V mode: press [LPF Hz/%] >2 s.
7.7. Temperature measurement (optional)
(testo 760-2/-3)
A thermocouple adapter (0590 0002) is optionally available for measuring
temperature. Before using the thermocouple adapter, please carefully read
through the relevant section relating to the thermocouple adapter in the
documentation. Familiarize yourself with the product before using it. Pay
particular attention to the safety instructions and warning advice in order to
prevent injuries and damage to the product.
In this section, it is assumed that you are familiar with the contents of the
documentation relating to the thermocouple adapter.
