Making a DC Current Measurement
To measure a DC current smaller than 600 mA, perform the following:
1) Press the A key; the DC icon appears on the screen. The unit of measure on the main
reading screen is mA. Press F2 to switch the measurement between mA and 10A.
600mA is acquiescence.
2) Insert the black lead into the COM banana jack input and the red lead into the mA banana
jack input.
3) Connect the red and black leads to the measured points; the DC current value of
measured
points will be displayed on the screen. The screen will resemble the image in figure 7-8.
NOTE: For current measurements 5 amps and above, limit the measurement time to 15
seconds and allow for a 1 minuite cool down between measurements.
