Using the Input Terminals
All functions except current use the
*
and
COM inputs. Current functions use the inputs shown
below:
•
I
or
K
function: Use A and COM inputs from 400
mA to 20 A. Use mA/
µ
A and COM for inputs
≤
400
mA.
•
=
or
x
function: Use mA/
µ
A and COM for inputs
≤
5000.0
µ
A.
If a test lead is plugged into the mA/
µ
A or A terminal, but
the rotary switch is not correctly set to one of the current
measuring positions, the Input Alert™ beeper warns you
by making a chirping sound and the primary display shows
"
LEAd5
". This warning is intended to stop you from
attempting to measure voltage, continuity, resistance,
capacitance, or diode values when the leads are plugged
into a current terminal.
Figure 2-5 shows the input terminals.
