5.2 Mode multímetre

The multimeter function allows for precise measurements of voltage, current, resistance, capacitance, and continuity.

  1. Premeu el botó Mode button to select Multimeter mode.
  2. Connect the test leads to the appropriate input jacks (e.g., VΩ+C for voltage/resistance/capacitance, A or mA for current, COM for common).
  3. Select the desired measurement function (e.g., DC Voltage, AC Voltage, Resistance) using the function buttons (F1-F4) or navigation keys.
  4. Llegiu el valor de mesura a la pantalla.

5.3 Arbitrary Function Generator (AFG) Mode

The AFG allows you to generate various waveforms for testing circuits.

  1. Premeu el botó Mode button to select AFG mode.
  2. Connect the output of the AFG to the circuit requiring a signal input.
  3. Use the function buttons (F1-F4) and navigation keys to select waveform type (sine, square, triangle, etc.), frequency, amplitude, and offset.
  4. Adjust parameters as needed for your application.

5.4 Emmagatzematge de dades

The USB Type-C port can be used for data storage. Connect the device to a computer using a USB Type-C cable to transfer saved waveforms or measurement data.

6. Manteniment

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your device.
