Using The Multimeter, Making Meter Connections | Fluke 192, 199, 196

About this Chapter

This chapter provides a step-by-step introduction to the multimeter functions of the test tool (hereafter called “meter”). The introduction gives basic examples to show how to use the menus and perform basic operations.

Making Meter Connections

Use the two 4-mm safety red () and black (COM) banana jack inputs for the Meter functions.

(See Figure 11.)
