Measuring Frequency
XWWarning
To avoid electrical shock, disregard
the bar graph for frequencies >1 kHz.
If the frequency of the measured
signal is >1 kHz, the bar graph and Z
are unspecified.

The Meter measures the frequency of a signal by counting
the number of times the signal crosses a trigger level each
second. The trigger level is 0 V for all ranges.
1. Press g to turn the frequency measurement
function on and off. Frequency works with ac volts only.
2. In frequency, the bar graph and range annunciator
indicate the AC voltage present.
3. Select progressively lower ranges using manual ranging
for a stable reading.
Making Low Impedance Capacitance
Measurements
For making capacitance measurements on cables with
ghost voltage, hold qwhile turning on the Meter to
switch the Meter into LoZ, (low input impedance)
Capacitance mode. In this mode, capacitance
measurements will have a lower accuracy and lower
dynamic range. This setting is not saved when the Meter is
turned off or goes into sleep mode.
