OWON HDS1021M Handheld DSO & DMM 7-Using the Multimeter

7.4.4 Making a Capacitance Measurement

To measure a capacitance, do the following:

1. Press

the

R key and R appears on the top of the screen

2. Press

the

AUTO SET key till C appears at the top of the screen.

3.

Insert the measured capacitance into the quadratic jack and the screen shows the
capacitance reading.

Notice: when measured value is less than 5 nF capacitance, please use small

capacitance measurer of this multimeter and use relative value measuring
mode to improve measuring precision. It will take about 30seconds if
capacitance measurement is large than 40uF.

Now, you can see a screen that looks like the following figure 21.

7.4.5 Making a DC Voltage Measurement

To measure a DC voltage, do the following:

1. Press

the

V key and DCV appears at the top of the screen.

2.

Insert the black lead into the COM banana jack input and the red lead into the V/Ω banana
jack input.

3.

Connect the red and black leads to the measured point and the measured point voltage value
is displayed on the screen.

Now, you can see a screen that looks like the following figure 22.
