5. Setup
5.1. Installazione di batterie
The Fluke 77-4 is powered by a 9V battery. To install or replace the battery:
- Assicuratevi chì u multimetru sia spento.
- Locate the battery compartment cover on the rear of the multimeter.
- Aduprate un cacciavite per allentà a (e) vite chì fissanu u coperchio.
- Remove the cover and insert a new 9V battery, observing correct polarity.
- Replace the cover and tighten the screw(s).
5.2. Cunnessione di i cavi di prova
Always connect the black test lead to the COM jack. Connect the red test lead to the appropriate input jack for your measurement:
- VΩHz: Per voltage, resistance, continuity, diode, and frequency measurements.
- mA: For current measurements up to 400mA.
- 10A: For current measurements up to 10A.
6. Operating Instructions
Before taking any measurement, ensure the test leads are correctly connected and the function dial is set to the appropriate position.
6.1. Misurazione di u vulume AC/DCtage
- Turn the rotary dial to V~ (AC Voltage) or V (DC Voltagè).
- Connect the black test lead to the COM jack and the red test lead to the VΩHz jack.
- Toccate e sonde di prova à i punti di u circuitu induve u vulumetage hè da esse misurata.
- Leghjite u voltagU valore nantu à a visualizazione.
6.2. Misurazione di a Resistenza (Ohm)
- Assicuratevi chì u circuitu sia disenergizatu prima di misurà a resistenza.
- Turn the rotary dial to Ω.
- Connect the black test lead to the COM jack and the red test lead to the VΩHz jack.
- Touch the test probes across the component or circuit segment.
- Leghjite u valore di resistenza nantu à u display.
6.3. Measuring Current (Amperes)
Attenzione: Current measurements require breaking the circuit and inserting the multimeter in series. Incorrect connection can blow the fuse or damage the meter.
- De-energize u circuitu.
- Determine the expected current range. For currents up to 400mA, turn the dial to mA and connect the red lead to the mA jack. For currents up to 10A, turn the dial to A and connect the red lead to the 10A jack.
