7.

Read the measurement on the LCD display.

SOURCE (Output)

In this mode, the unit will source (output) voltage or current.

1.

Select Voltage or Current on the Function switch.

2.

Turn the meter ON

3.

Press the MODE button to select SOURCE

4.

Press the UNIT button to select V or mV if voltage is selected or to select mA or %

if current is selected.

NOTE: The “SOURCE” icon will blink when the output value has not reached a

stable level. The common cause for the “SOURCE” icon to remain blinking is that the

load impedance is too high in the current mode or too low in the voltage mode.
