Multi-meter Tests
The purpose of the multi-meter tests function is to detect AC/DC voltages
and currents, and measure resistance and capacitance in a loop. These
tests allow you to make basic electrical safety checks (AC volts), check
from crossed or coupled battery voltages, assess basic loop continuity and
quality with resistance measurements, and measure total electrical length
with capacitance.
To access Multi-meter tests:
1. From the Home pane, highlight Multi-meter and press
to start the
test.
OR
2. From the Home pane use the up/down arrow keys to highlight Fault
Isolation Tools and press
.
3. Highlight Multi-meter Tests and press
to list the available tests.
The Multi-meter Tests menu includes
the following tests:
³
Multi-meter
