Operation

This section gives examples of how to connect and use the
instrument. Before you start:
• Read and understand the "Safety" section.
• Do not use a damaged instrument.
Operation - Frequency connections
To prevent instrument errors, make sure that the
frequency connections (A1-item [10]) are correct.
Operation - Communications port connections
Use the communications port (A1 - item [9]) to attach an
IDOS Universal Measurement Module (UMM).
When you attach the cable from a UMM (Figure 7/8), the
instrument automatically changes the menus to give you
all the applicable options (Table 2/3).
Operation - Measure Hz or count pulses
To measure Hz or count pulses:
1. Connect the instrument (Figure 1) and, if necessary,
adjust the Set Up (Table 1).
2. Select a Hz or Pulses input task from Select Task
(Table 2/3) and, if necessary, adjust the Settings
(Table 4).
3. For Pulses, use Start/Stop (■ ■) to start and stop the
count. The display shows the time (hh:mm:ss) since you
started the count.
