MEASURING CAPACITANCE
(DAMP68 ONLY)
 Warning
To avoid possible damage to the meter or other
equipment, turn off the power source and
discharge all high-voltage capacitors.
(1) Disconnect the capacitor from power.
(2) Short the capacitor’s terminals to discharge it.

display.
MEASURING FREQUENCY
(1) Turn the function switch to the
Hz position.
(2) Plug the black and red test leads into the
– and + input terminals, respectively.
(3) Measure the frequency by touching the red
probe to any point of a circuit, and the black
probe to circuit ground.
(4) Read the measured frequency on the display.
