4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

4.1 Modi ta' Kejl

The VC-12884330 offers various measurement functions. Always select the appropriate function before connecting test leads to the circuit under test.

• Voltage (V~ / V-): Measure AC or DC voltage. Connect the red test lead to the VΩHz jack and the black test lead to the COM jack.
• Current (A~ / A- / mA / µA): Measure AC or DC current. Connect the red test lead to the appropriate current jack (mA or A) and the black test lead to the COM jack. Ensure the correct jack is used for the expected current range.
• Reżistenza (Ω): Measure resistance. Connect the red test lead to the VΩHz jack and the black test lead to the COM jack. Ensure the circuit is de-energized.
• Capacitance (††): Measure capacitance. Connect the red test lead to the VΩHz jack and the black test lead to the COM jack. Ensure capacitors are discharged before testing.
• Frekwenza (Hz): Measure frequency. Connect the red test lead to the VΩHz jack and the black test lead to the COM jack.
• Test tad-Diode: Dijodi tat-test għall-volum 'il quddiemtage drop. Connect the red test lead to the VΩHz jack and the black test lead to the COM jack.
• Test ta' Kontinwità: Check for circuit continuity with an audible buzzer. Connect the red test lead to the VΩHz jack and the black test lead to the COM jack.
