Frequency or % Duty Cycle Measurements For Model 0250-57: 1. Set the rotary function switch to the Hz% position. 2. Press the Hz% button to indicate “Hz” in the display. 3. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive Hz jack.
Temperature Measurements (Model 20250-58 only) WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect both test probes from any source of voltage before making a temperature measurement. 1. Set the function switch to TEMP. 2. Insert the temperature probe into the negative COM and the V jacks, making sure to observe the correct polarity.
The backlight function illuminates the display and is used when the ambient light to too low to permit viewing of the displayed readings. Press the HOLD/backlight button for one second to turn the backlight on and press the button a second time to turn the backlight off.
