2. Determine whether the transistor is of the NPN- or PNP-type and locate the emitter, the base
and the collector. Insert the leads into the proper holes in the socket on the front panel.
3. The display will show the approximate hFE-value at the moment of testing. Base current
10µA, Vce 2.8V.
3.9. Measuring Temperature
1. Measure temperatures with the K-type thermocouple : select the "T" range with the
FUNCTION switch and insert the plug of the K-thermocouple in the green "K PROBE"
socket.
2. The ambient temperature will be displayed in °C if the "T" range is selected without
connecting the K-thermocouple.
Remark : Do not hesitate to push firmly in order to insert the temperature probe in the socket.
3.10. Measuring Frequency
1. Connect the black test lead (-) to the "COM" jack and the red test lead (+) to the "VHz"
jack.
