3. Connect the test probes across the component or circuit to be measured.
4. Прочитајте књtagе вредност на ЛЦД екрану.

5.3 Measuring DC Current (A–)

ОПРЕЗ: To avoid damage to the multimeter or the circuit, never connect the test leads in parallel across a voltage source when measuring current. Always connect in series.

1. For currents up to 200mA, insert the red test lead into the 'VΩmA' jack. For currents up to 10A, insert the red test lead into the '10A MAX' jack. The black test lead always goes into the 'COM' jack.
2. Set the rotary switch to the desired DC Current (A–) range (e.g., 200u, 2m, 20m, 200m, 10A).
3. Open the circuit where current is to be measured and connect the multimeter in series with the circuit.
4. Прочитајте тренутну вредност на ЛЦД екрану.

5.4 Measuring Resistance (Ω)

ОПРЕЗ: Ensure the circuit under test is completely de-energized before measuring resistance.

1. Insert the red test lead into the 'VΩmA' jack and the black test lead into the 'COM' jack.
2. Set the rotary switch to the desired Resistance (Ω) range (e.g., 200, 2k, 20k, 200k, 2M).
3. Повежите мерне сонде преко компоненте коју треба мерити.
