2SCD30A DataSheetOperating Steps:
1.

Connect the current shunt as follows:（1）

Inserting SCD30A during the SDM in shutdown state;（2）

Connect the test connection cable firmly to the terminal post at the front end of theSCD30A and check to confirm that there is no safety risk;

Caution:To avoid personal injury and other possible hazards. When connected byinserting the terminal, the current shunt allows a maximum current of 15A topass through; To measure 30A current, please use the terminal knob tosecurely and reliably connect the input cable.

（3）

Connect the other end of the test cable securely to the source under test.

2.

Set up the digital multimeter according to the following principles:（1）

Suggest only working with SIGLENT SDM series 5 ½ or 6 ½ multimeters. When thecurrent to be measured is DC, please enter the DCI measurement function and select【Option Measure】;（2）

During the 【Option】, select 【SCD30A】，and turn on the source under test;（3）

Select 【Close】 or enable other measurement ranges to exit the SCD30A measurement
function;（4）

Under the ACI measurement interface, following the same operating steps can achieve
the measurement of AC high current;（5）

4After the measurement is completed, please turn off external input in a timely manner.

SCD30A DataSheetAbout SIGLENTSIGLENT is an international high-tech company, concentrating on R&D, sales,
production and services of electronic test & measurement instruments.
SIGLENT first began developing digital oscilloscopes independently in 2002.
After more than a decade of continuous development, SIGLENT has extended
its product line to include digital oscilloscopes, isolated handheld

oscilloscopes,

function/arbitrary

waveform

generators,

RF/MWsignalgenerators, spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers, digital multimeters,
DC power supplies, electronic loads and other general purpose test
instrumentation. Since its first oscilloscope was launched in 2005, SIGLENT
has become the fastest growing manufacturer of digital oscilloscopes. We
firmly believe that today SIGLENT is the best value in electronic test &measurement.
