  • Page 21 Digital Microhmmeter Type DO7 PLUS Operating Instructions ZERO MODE The DO7PLUS uses a four wire internal zero measurement. The current terminals are internally shorted together and the first measurement made. The potential terminals will measure any emf in the circuit and this value is stored. A second measurement is then performed with the current and potential leads connected in the normal way.

  • Page 28 Digital Microhmmeter Type DO7 PLUS Operating Instructions 4.9.9 TEMPerature COMPensation Temperature compensation is included in the DO7PLUS and should be used when measurements are required to be referenced to a set temperature, normally 20qC. This is particularly useful when measuring materials with a high temperature coefficient such as copper.
  • Page 30 Digital Microhmmeter Type DO7 PLUS Operating Instructions 4.9.11 SETTLING The settling algorithm is particularly useful when measuring inductive devices such as motors, generators and transformers. With such devices it can take several seconds, and in the more extreme cases minutes, for the ohmmeter measuring current to charge the inductance and provide a steady and stable reading.
