Measuring Frequency

XWWarning

To avoid electrical shock, disregard

the bar graph for frequencies >1 kHz.

If the frequency of the measured

signal is >1 kHz, the bar graph and Z

are unspecified.

AC Voltage Frequency

edy09f.eps

The Meter measures the frequency of a signal by counting

the number of times the signal crosses a trigger level each

second. The trigger level is 0 V for all ranges.

1. Press g to turn the frequency measurement

function on and off. Frequency works with ac volts only.

2. In frequency, the bar graph and range annunciator

indicate the AC voltage present.

3. Select progressively lower ranges using manual ranging

for a stable reading.

Making Low Impedance Capacitance

Measurements

For making capacitance measurements on cables with

ghost voltage, hold qwhile turning on the Meter to

switch the Meter into LoZ, (low input impedance)

Capacitance mode. In this mode, capacitance

measurements will have a lower accuracy and lower

dynamic range. This setting is not saved when the Meter is

turned off or goes into sleep mode.
