  • Page 3: Introduction

    Components can be measured in the series or parallel mode as desired; the more standard method is automatically selected first but can be overridden. The Model 885 and 886 offers three useful modes for sorting components. The highly versatile Models can perform virtually all the functions of most bench type LCR bridges.
