2.1 Electrical Connections
To prevent instrument errors, make sure that the electrical
connections (Figure A1 - Item 10 and/or Figure A2) are
correct.
The Help button (Figure A3 - Item 25) shows a
connection diagram for the task selections you have
set.
2.2 Communications Port Connections
Use the communications port (Figure A1 - Item 9) to attach
an IDOS Universal Measurement Module (UMM).
When you attach the cable from a UMM (Figure 13 &
Figure 14), the instrument automatically changes the
menus to give you all the applicable options (Table 2 &
Table 3).
2.3 Change the Output Values
When the output operation is set up (Table 5), use one of
these procedures to change the output values:

2.4 Measure/Supply mA
To measure/supply a current:
1. Connect the instrument (Figure 1, Figure 2 or Figure 3)
and, if necessary, adjust the Set Up (Table 1).
2. Select the task from the task selection menu (Table 2 &
Table 3).
Note: Use the Dual Function area () to do two
operations at the same time. If the area selection is
not necessary, set this area to off (). This saves the
battery power.
