Measure DC current from the front panel
To make a DC current measurement using the front panel:
1. Make the connections as shown in the previous figures.
2. Press the FUNCTION key.
3. Select DC Current.
4. Press the TRIGGER key for 2 seconds and verify that the instrument is set to Continuous
Measurement.
The measurements start displaying on the front panel.
When the TERMINALS switch is set to REAR and autorange is enabled, autoranging is limited to
ranges up to 3 A ranges. The 10 A range is not included in the autorange algorithm.
Settings available for DC current measurements
See DC current measure settings (on page 2-26) for settings that are available when you are making
DC current measurements.
AC current measurements
This section describes how you can set up AC current measurements from the front panel.
To prevent electric shock, never make or break connections while power is present in the
test circuit.
