Measuring voltage:
- Connect the black lead of the multimeter to the COM terminal.
- Connect the red lead of the multimeter to the V/Ω terminal.
- Set the multimeter to the DC voltage setting.
- Connect the black lead to the negative terminal of the circuit and the red lead to the positive terminal of the circuit.
- The multimeter will display the voltage of the circuit.
Measuring current:
- Connect the black lead of the multimeter to the COM terminal.
- Connect the red lead of the multimeter to the A/Ω terminal.
- Set the multimeter to the DC current setting.
- Connect the multimeter in series with the circuit you want to measure the current of.
