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.

2. On the Current Probe, select the least sensitive range (10 mV/A). Ensure that

the green ON-indicator lights. See Figure 4 for selector switch and green ON-

indicator locations.

3. On the Current Probe, rotate the ZERO thumbwheel to adjust the probe

reading to zero. See Figure 4 for the ZERO rotary knob location.

4. Select the appropriate probe sensitivity on your ScopeMeter test tool or

oscilloscope.

5. Clamp the Current Probe around the conductor; be sure that the arrow marked

on the jaw of the Current Probe points toward the correct orientation. (see

Figure 3.)
