Connection Preparations
For voltage measurement
3.2 Connecting Cables and Probes
• Do not use cables other than those specified by Hioki. The specified
cables use insulated BNC connectors to avoid electric shock accidents.
An uninsulated BNC plug may cause electric shock or damage to the
BNC jack.
• Do not connect a cable to the instrument while it is connected to the
object to be measured. Otherwise, an electric shock accident may occur.
Connecting to the BNC jacks on input modules
When disconnecting the BNC connector, be sure to release the lock before pull-
ing off the connector. Forcibly pulling the connector without releasing the lock, or
pulling on the cable, can damage the connector.

Connecting
Align the two slots in the BNC plug with the
guide pins on the jack at the input module
side, then push and twist the plug clockwise.
Disconnecting
Push the BNC plug in, twist it counterclock-
wise, and pull it out.
Use only the specified connection cords. Using a non-specified cable may result
in incorrect measurements due to poor connection or other reasons.
