1. Operation of the multi-measurement station
in accordance with the specification:
- Measurement and display of frequencies up to 1300 MHz max. by
means of the built-in frequency counter
- Production of sinusoidal, square, sawtooth and/or TTL signals up to
10 MHz max.by means of the built-in signal generator
- Conversion of 230V AC voltage to DC voltage 5V/2A, 15V/1A and 0 to
30V/0 to 3A by means of the built-in power supply
- Measurement of DC voltages to 1000 VDC max., TRUE RMS with the
2
digital multimeter
- Measurement of AC voltages to 750 VAC rms max., DC and AC currents
(true rms) to 20 A max. (30 seconds duration max., fused), measure-
ment of resistance to 40 MOhm max., capacity to 400 µF max. and
inductance to 400 mH max., continuity test and logic test.
- Measurements should not be performed under unfavourable ambient
conditions. Unfavourable environmental conditions include:
- Wetness or excessive air humidity,
- Dust and combustible gases, vapours or solvents,
- Thunderstorms or storm conditions such as strong electrostatic fields
etc..

Any use other than as described above may result in damage to the mea-
suring instrument and can cause hazards such as, for example, short-cir-
cuits, fire, electric shock, etc... No part of the product should be modified
or converted! Safety instructions must be observed at all times!
2. The MS-9160 Universal System
The MS-9160 Universal System is a compact, powerful measuring instru-
ment for various application areas such as laboratories, service centres,
schools, hobbies etc. This "All in One" instrument contains a function
generator, a frequency counter, a DC voltage power supply with two
fixed and one variable output voltages and a high quality (physically
separate) multimeter.
The instrument in detail:
1. The function generator delivers seven different waveforms: sinusoi-
dal, sawtooth, square, adapted sinusoidal (clockwise, counterclock-
wise), pulse, ramp and TTL level (square). The FG produces these
waveforms in seven steps from 0.2 Hz to 10 MHz.
2. The frequency counter can measure frequencies from 5 Hz to 1300
MHz and display these on the 8-position LED display.
3. The DC voltage power supply delivers two stabilised fixed voltages,
these being 5 V / 2 A and 15 V / 1 A. Additionally a stabilised, adju-
stable DC voltage is available of from 0 to 30 V with a current capaci-
ty of from 0 to 3 A. By means of a link the adjustable power supply
output can be "grounded".
4. The digital multimeter measures voltage to 1000 VDC and 750 VAC,
current to 20 A DC/AC, resistance to 40 MOhm, capacity to 400 uF and
inductance to 400 mH max. It has a built-in logic tester and offers spe-
