  • Page 2: Purpose Of This Manual

    Description The Greenlee DM-200A, DM-210A, and DM-510A Digital Multimeters are hand-held testing devices with the following measurement capabilities: AC and DC voltage, AC and DC current, frequency, and resistance. They also check diodes and verify continuity. An optional optically isolated computer inter- face with software facilitates the recording of readings from the meter to a computer.
  • Page 3: Important Safety Information

    Electric shock hazard: Contact with live circuits could result in severe injury or death. All specifications are nominal and may change as design improvements occur. Greenlee Textron Inc. shall not be liable for damages resulting from misapplication or misuse of its products.
  • Page 4 Important Safety Information Electric shock and fire hazard: • Do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. • Do not use the unit if it is wet or damaged. • Use test leads or accessories that are appropriate for the application. Refer to the category and voltage rating of the test lead or accessory.
  • Page 5 DM-200A • DM-210A • DM-510A Important Safety Information Electric shock hazard: • Unless measuring voltage, current, or frequency, shut off and lock out power. Make sure that all capacitors are discharged. Voltage must not be present. • Set the selector and connect the test leads so that they correspond to the intended measurement. Incorrect settings or connections can result in a blown fuse.

  • Page 10 AC Measurement AC measurements are usually displayed as RMS (root mean square) values. The RMS value is equal to the value of a DC waveform, which would deliver the same power if it replaced the time-varying wave- form. Two AC measurement methods are average-responding RMS calibrated and true RMS-reading. The average-responding RMS calibrated method takes the average value of the input signal after full wave rectification, multiplies it by 1.11, and displays the result.
