Dc/Ac Current Measuring - VOLTCRAFT VC-10 Notice D'emploi

g) DC/AC current measuring
Current measuring operations are possible in two ranges. The first
range is 0 to 4000µA, the second 0 to 200mA. Both current measu-
ring ranges are provided with fuses and thus protected against
overload.
Proceed as follows to measure direct currents:
• If you want to measure currents of up to
max. 4000µA, set the rotary switch (1) to
position „µA" or to position „mA" res-
pectively up to max. 200 mA. The dis-
play shows „DC"
• Now connect the two test prods in
series with the object to be measured
(battery, switching etc.); the polarity of
the measuring figure concerned will be
indicated together with the current mea-
suring value on the display.
Proceed as described above to measure
alternating currents:
For alternate current measuring, press the button „MODE" (3) to
switch to the AC range. Pressing this button again, takes you back.
In the µA/mA range, DO NOT measure any currents
above 200 mA, otherwise the fuse triggers.
If the fuse triggered (no measuring value changes etc.), turn the
DMM off (OFF) and wait approx. 5 minutes. The self-resetting fuse
cools down and then functions again.
