Starting Operation; Basic Settings - Conrad Electronic VC-200 Green DMM Mode D'emploi

4.2 Connection of the Measuring cables
Only use the measuring cables which are supplied with this measuring
unit. Pay attention before each connection that the insulation of
connection plugs and the test probes is undamaged.
These measuring cables are safe for voltages up to 1000 V max. Your
measuring unit, the Voltcraft 200 Green Multimeter is constructed for
voltages up to 1000 VDC or 750 VACrms. Use special caution when
working with voltages over 25 V AC or 35 V DC.
Attention!
Never exceed the maximum input limits, as otherwise the
measuring unit will be damaged and this is dangerous to life.

4.3 Starting operation

4.3.1 Basic Settings

Turn the rotary function switch the desired position. Switch on/off
with the push button.
4.3.2 Occupation of the Sockets, Marking of the Switches
a) Measuring Function Switch (2)
Attention!
Never turn the rotary function switch during measurement, as
otherwise the measuring unit could be destroyed and this could
be dangerous to life.
The different basic measuring ranges are semicircular arranged
and are selectable by turning the switch.

CHARGE
230V MAX = Charging of the High Cap at 230 V mains voltage
CHARGE
9V-20V AC DC = Charging of the High Cap at 9 to 20 V DC or AC
mV= = millivolt, DC (milli = 10 exp. -3)
V= = Volt, DC (=DC)
V~ = Volt, AC (=AC)
mA~ = milliampere, AC
A~ = Ampere, AC
mA= = milliampere, DC
A= = Ampere, DC
" " = Diodetest and acoustic continuity check in one
function
"Ω" = resistance measurement (K = Kilo = x 1000, M =
Mega = x 1000 000)
b) 20-A Socket
For DC- or AC-measurement to max.! 20 A the red test-lead must be
plugged in.
Attention!
The rotary function switch must never be set to voltage
measurement (V) during current measurement.
c) mA-Socket
For DC and AC measurements up to max.! 200 mA the red test- lead
must be connected, but only if the rotary function switch is set to
position "mA".
d) COM = Common-Socket
Connect for all measurement exept capacity measurement the black
test lead (common-socket means minus or "-" or gound socket)
