4.2. Connecting Test Leads and Probes

Connect the appropriate test leads or probes to the input channels of the ScopeMeter based on your measurement requirements. Use the BNC-to-banana adapter as needed for specific connections.

  • Insert the test leads into the input jacks.
  • Ensure connections are secure before taking any measurements.
  • For external triggering, an optical port is available for attaching a Fluke ITP120 probe (sold separately).

5. Iziqondiso Zokusebenza

The Fluke 123/003 features an intuitive interface with drop-down menus for easy navigation. Refer to the on-screen prompts and the full user manual for detailed operational procedures.

5.1. Oscilloscope Function

  • Waveform Acquisition: The oscilloscope acquires waveforms with a real-time sample rate of 25MS/s and a record length of 512 points per channel.
  • Ukucupha: Utilize advanced automatic triggering, which recognizes signal patterns and optimizes triggering, timebase, and amplitude settings. Edge and video triggers are available for isolating specific signals.
  • Izilinganiso: Use automatic and cursor measurement parameters for in-depth waveform analysis.

5.2. Multimeter Function

  • Izindlela zokulinganisa: Select between manual ranging (user selects operating range) and auto ranging (device automatically selects appropriate range).
  • Umsebenzi ohlobene: Set a measurement as a reference and display subsequent measurements as deviations.
  • Touch-Hold Mode: Captures and holds a stable reading on the display.
  • Data-Hold Function: Freezes a reading on the display for documentation.
  • Continuity and Diode Check: Use these functions to verify circuit conductivity and diode functionality.

5.3. Ukuphathwa Kwedatha

  • Ukugcina Idatha: Store up to 10 setups and screen shots in the internal memory.
  • TrendPlot: Use the TrendPlot chart recorder to graph minimum and maximum values from both oscilloscope and multimeter functions over time. The recorder can be programmed for various time scales.
  • PC/Printer Connection: Use the optically isolated RS-232 interface to connect to a compatible printer for direct data printing or to a PC for data storage and analysis (requires FlukeView software and RS-232/USB adapter, typically part of the SCC120 kit).

6. Isondlo

6.1. Ukunakekelwa Kwebhethri

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of the NiMH battery pack:

  • Recharge the battery when the low-battery indicator appears.
