When measuring on line frequency or duty cycle under AC voltage and current measurement mote, the input amplitude and frequency response must satisfy the following requirement: • Input amplitude ≥range x 30%. • Frequency response: 72-2605 and 72-10405 ≤400Hz. 72-2610, 72-10410 and 72-10415 ≤1kHz.
72-2610/72-10410 750V AC 72-10415 0.01Ω • 72-2605, 72-10405, 72-2610, 72-10410: Open circuit voltage is around 0.45V. Broken circuit resistance value is around >35Ω the buzzer does not sound. Good circuit resistance value is ≤10Ω the buzzer sounds continuously. • 72-10415: Open circuit voltage is around -3V.

If the circuit impedance is less than or equal to 10kΩ, the error is negligible (0.1% or less). • For 72-2605 : When measuring mV, you must press RANGE manually to enter mV range. •...
• Connect the test lead in serial to the circuit to be tested. The measured value shows on the display. • 72-2605,72-10405 and 72-2610: displays effective value of sine wave (mean value response). • 72-10415: displays the true rms value.
REL to subtract this from the tested value. • Connect the test leads across the object being measured. • 72-2605, 72-10405, 72-2610 and 72-10415: is around 10nF 72-10415: is around 1nF. • Alternatively, use the included multi-purpose socket for measuring capacitors with leads or SMT capacitor.
When temperature measurement has been completed, disconnect the temperature probe from the object being measured, and remove the temperature probe from the input terminals of the Meter. Transistor hFE Measurement 72-2605 only • Set the rotary switch to hFE. •...
