Model MFJ-200A VERSION 1A Inductance/Capacitance Meter 2 INTRODUCTION Congratulations on purchasing the MFJ-200A Inductance/Capacitancor Meter. The Inductance/Capacitancor Meter is highly accurate, compact, rugged, self calibrating, and super easy-to-use! The MFJ-200A delivers laboratory performance. The sophisticated high-speed micro-controller allows it to compute unknown capacitance/inductance in seconds. Here are some important features we think you'll like: Multiple Ranges: Four selectable ranges: • 0.01pF - 10uF • 1uF - 100uF • 0.001uH - 100mH • .001mH - 100H. Computation: High speed Microcontroller precision computation. Power: Use four AA batteries (not included), 5.5mm DC AC adapter, or any USB source with a mini-USB plug. Sleep Mode: Intellectually shutdown in 5 min. Just push power switch to resume testing. Important Warnings: Do not reset to “0” as components are being measured. If you do it, please shut down immediately and restart, then reset to “0”. Do not to measure a capacitance which is not discharged, otherwise it may damage the mainframe. 3 MFJ-200A CONTROLS Figure 1 MFJ-200A INDUCTANCE/CAPACITANCE METER Front Panel Controls and Indicators • Push button Zero switch (1) allows the user to reset to zero. • Push button Hi.C switch (2) allows the user to calculate capacitance ranges. o Button pushed out calculate capacitance ranges 1uF-100mF o Button pushed in calculate capacitance ranges .01pF-10uF • Push button Hi.L switch (3) allows the user to calculate inductance ranges. o Button pushed out calculate inductance ranges 100mH-100H o Button pushed in calculate inductance ranges .001-100mH • Push button L/C switch (4) allows the user to select inductance or capacitance. o Button pushed out capacitance C o Button pushed in inductor L • Push button Func switch (5) allows the user to see results in Hz. o Button pushed reads results inHz o Button released reads results 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
