The structure of the multimeter and the meaning of each symbol and its use
Structure of a multimeter (Model 500)
The multimeter consists of three main parts: the meter head, the measurement circuit and the changeover switch.
It is a high sensitivity magneto-electric DC ammeter, and the main performance index of the multimeter basically depends on the performance of the head. The sensitivity of the meter head refers to the DC current value flowing through the meter head when the needle of the meter head is deflected at full scale, the smaller this value is, the higher the sensitivity of the meter head is. The greater the internal resistance when measuring voltage, the better its performance. There are four scales on the head of the table, their functions are as follows: the first (from top to bottom) labeled R or Ω, indicating the value of the resistance, the conversion switch in the ohms, that is, read this scale. The second is labeled with ∽ and VA, indicating the AC and DC voltage and DC current values, when the transfer switch in AC and DC voltage or DC current block, range in addition to AC 10V other than the other position, that is, read this scale. The third is labeled with 10V, indicating the AC voltage value of 10V, when the changeover switch is in the AC or DC voltage block, and the range is in the AC 10V, that is, read this scale line. The fourth line is labeled dB, indicating the audio level.
Measurement line
Measurement line is used to convert a variety of measured to the appropriate meter to measure the tiny DC current circuit, which consists of resistors, semiconductor components and batteries
It can be a variety of different measurements (such as current, voltage, resistance, etc.), different ranges, after a series of processing (such as rectification, shunt, voltage, etc.) unified into a certain limit of the tiny DC current into the meter head for measurement.
Switch
Its role is used to select a variety of different
