on all other ranges. The nominal open-circuit volt-
age for all ranges up to R X 1k is 1.5V. The R X
10k range has an open circuit voltage of 9 V. The
maximum current drawn from the 1.5V battery is
250 mA (R X 1 with test leads shorted).

battery quiescent current is 4.3 mA at R X 1 and
0.43 mA at R X 10.

To read voltages in terms of decibels, use the decibel (dB) scale on the bottom of
the dial, marked from -20 to +10. Read the dB scale by first following the instruc-
tions for measuring AC. When the range switch is set on the 2.5V position, read
the dB scale directly. The dB readings on the scale are referenced to zero dB
power level of 0.001 W into 600 , or 0.775V AC across 600 . For the 10V range,
read the dB scale and add +11 dB to the reading. For the 25V range, read the dB
scale and add 19 dB to the reading. On the 100V range, read the dB scale and
add +31 dB to the reading; on the 250V range, add +39 dB to the reading.
NOTE: The voltage drop across the 260 on all milliampere current ranges is
approximately 250 millivolts measured at the jacks. An exception is the 0-500 mA
range, where the drop is approximately 480 millivolts. The voltage drop will not
affect most circuits whose current is being measured. In some transistor circuits,
it might be necessary to take the voltage drop into account when making voltage
measurements.
While the circuit is energized do not change the setting of the function or range
switches or disconnect the test leads.
Set the range switch to one of the range positions marked 2.5V, 10V, 25V,
100V or 250V.
Be sure the power is off in the circuit being measured.
Connect the test leads across the circuit being measured with the black test
lead to the ground side.
Turn on the power in the test circuit. Read the output voltage on the appropri-
ate AC voltage scale. For the 0-2.5V range, read the value directly on the red
scale marked 2.5V. For the 10V, 25V, 100V or 250V ranges, use the red scale
marked AC and read the black figures immediately above the scale.
