3. Connect test leads: black test lead to black jack, red test lead to red jack.
Then connect test leads to the test object.
4. The instrument displays the acve power in w(as) and the power factor (PF).
The instrument requires approx. 3 s for the reading to be displayed. An
updated reading is displayed aer approx. 3 s.
5. Switch between acve power, apparent power, reacve power and power
measurement for direct current/voltage: press [ ] <1 s.
7.6 Frequency measurement
The frequency is displayed automacally during an A AC or V AC measurement.
The following minimum values are necessary for correct display of
frequency with voltage and/or current measurement:
Voltage: 1 V
Current: 1.5 % of the measuring range (testo 770-1/-2/-3 (0590 7703))
0.5 % of the measuring range (testo 770-3 (0590 3770))
7.7 Temperature measurement (oponal)
(testo 770-2/-3 only)
A thermocouple adapter (0590 0021 for testo 770-2/-3 (0590 7703)) or
thermocouple probe (0590 0024 for testo 770-3 (0590 3770)) is oponally
available for measuring temperature. Before using the thermocouple adapter or
thermocouple probe, please carefully read through the relevant secon in the
documentaon. Familiarize yourself with the product before using it. Pay parcular
aenon to the safety instrucons and warning advice in order to prevent injuries
and damage to the product.
In this secon, it is assumed that you are familiar with the contents of the
documentaon relang to the thermocouple adapter and thermocouple probe.
