80i-110s Instruction Manual INSTRUMENT COMPATIBILITY The 80i-110s is compatible with any Fluke ScopeMeter test tool, Power Harmonics Analyzer, Oscilloscope, Multimeter, or other voltage measurement device that has the following features: • BNC input connector. A BNC-to-banana adapter (order PM9081/001 from Fluke) can also be used with standard inputs on a digital multimeter (DMM).
USING THE CURRENT PROBE To use the Current Probe, follow these instructions: 1. Connect the 80i-110s Current Probe to the desired input on the measuring instrument. When the ScopeMeter test tool or an oscilloscope is used, it must have DC coupled input. When you are using a digital multimeter, use the BNC- to-banana adapter (PM9081/001) to connect the probe to the input.
