Testing the DC ampere Function (for 61-340 and 61-342)

1.Connect the calibrator to the 10A and COM inputs on the meter.

2.Turn the rotary switch to .

a. Press the SELECT button to select the DC function

3.Apply the inputs for steps 1-2 in Table 3c.

4.For each input, compare the reading on the meter display to the reading for your meter in Table 3c

5.If the display reading falls outside of the range shown in Table 3c, the meter does not meet specification.

Table 3c DCA Test:

Step	Range	Source
1	4	3.000A
2	10	10.00A

Reading

2.950 to 3.050

9.80 to 10.20

Testing the AC microampere Function (for 61-340 and 61-342)

To verify the accuracy of AC and DC current measurement functions, do the following:

1. Connect the calibrator to the and COM inputs on the meter.

2.Turn the rotary switch to

a.Press the SELECT button to select the AC function

b.Press the REL button to make the display is zero

3.Apply the inputs for steps 1-6 in Table 4a.

4.For each input, compare the reading on the meter display to the reading for your meter in Table 4a

5.If the display reading falls outside of the range shown in Table 4a, the meter does not meet specification.

Table 4a AC microampere Test:

Step	Range	Source	Frequency	Reading
1	400µA	40µA	60	38.9 to 41.1
2	400µA	40µA	400	38.9 to 41.1
3	400µA	300.0µA	400	295.0 to 305.0
4	400µA	300.0µA	400	295.0 to 305.0
5	4000µA	3000µA	60	2950 to 3050
6	4000µA	3000µA	400	2950 to 3050
