D) Measuring Capacity "Cap - VOLTCRAFT R-200 Bedienungsanleitung

Proceed as follows to measure AC currents (A/AC):
- Turn the DMM on and select measuring range "µA" or "mA". For currents >4 mA select the range
"mA", for currents <4 mA choose "µA".
- Press "MODE" (4) to switch to the AC measuring range. "AC" appears in the display.
- Plug the red single measuring lead into the mA measuring socket "E2" (10) and the black measuring
lead into the COM measuring socket "E1" (13).
- Connect the two measuring probes in series with the object to be measured. The measured value will
be displayed.
- After measuring, remove the measuring leads from the measured object and turn the DMM off.

d) Measuring Capacity "CAP"

Make sure that all the circuit parts, switches and components and other objects of
measurement are disconnected from the voltage and discharged.
With electrolyte capacitors, ensure that you observe the polarity.
- Turn the DMM on and select measuring range "CAP".
- Plug the red single measuring lead into the mA measuring socket "E2"
(10) and the black measuring lead into the COM measuring socket "E1"
(13).
- The display shows the unit "nF".
Due to the sensitive measuring input, the display may show a value
even with "open" measuring leads. This does not affect the accura-
cy of measurement.
- Connect the two test probes (red = positive pole/black = negative pole)
with the object to be measured (capacitor). After a short while the display
shows the capacity. Wait until the displayed value has stabilised. With
capacities of >40 µF, this may take a few seconds.
- If "OL" (overload) appears on the display, you have exceeded the mea-
suring range.
- After measuring, remove the measuring leads from the measuring object and turn the DMM off.
