b) Voltage Measuring “V”
Proceed as follows to measure DC voltages “DC“ (V ):
- Switch on the DMM and select measuring range “V ”. For
lower voltages up to max. 400 mV, select the measuring range
“mV “
- Plug the red measuring lead into the V measuring socket (7) and
the black measuring lead into the COM measuring socket (8).
- Now connect the two measuring prods to the object to be measu-
red (battery, switch etc.). The red measuring tip indicates the posi-
tive pole, the black measuring tip the negative pole.
- The polarity of the respective measured value is indicated on the
display together with the current measured value.
☞
As soon as a minus “-” appears for the direct voltage in front of the measured value, the
measured voltage is negative (or the measuring tips have been mixed up).
The voltage range “V DC/AC” shows an input resistance of >10 MOhm.
- After measuring, remove the measuring lines from the measured object and turn the DMM off.
Proceed as follows to measure AC voltages (V ):
- Switch on the DMM and select measuring range “V ”. “AC” appears in the display.
- Plug the red measuring lead into the V measuring socket (7) and the black measuring lead into the
COM measuring socket (8).
- Now connect the two measuring prods to the object to be measured (generator, switch etc.).
- The measured value is indicated on the display
- After measuring, remove the measuring lines from the measured object and turn the DMM off.
