Digital Volt Ohm Meter (DVOM)

Overview

The Digital Volt Ohm Meter (DVOM) is a powerful diagnostic tool that allows you to determine
specific values of different measurement modes. The DVOM modes include DC and AC voltages,
resistance, continuity, and diode check. The DVOM's large display makes it ideal for measuring a
variety of general signals as well as automotive signals.
CONNECTING THE LEADS
The DVOM +/- ports on the MTS 5200 are used for all of the DVOM modes. Connect the two-lead
set with the black lead in the DVOM - port and the red lead in the DVOM + port (see Figure 10-1).
Connect the black test lead tip to ground and the red test lead tip to the desired signal.
Once you select DVOM from the Main menu, a message appears reminding you to use the DVOM
inputs. Always use the DVOM ports for the DVOM application.
CAUTION!
Make sure the leads are routed away from moving parts to avoid personal injury or damage to
the MTS 5200. Be sure you use correct wire probing procedures to prevent damage to the
connectors or wires in the circuit. The maximum DVOM voltage measurement is +/- 400v.
WARNING!
The MTS 5200 is not intended for testing 110V, AC electrical circuits. Do not plug the leads into
an electrical wall socket. Damage to the tester or personal injury may occur.
