INTRODUCTION
Congratulations
on
your
purchase
of
an
AWS
DIGISNAP
Digital
Snap-Around
Multimeter.
The
DSA-2002
DIGISNAP
combines
accuracy,
capability
and
low
cost
with
the
durability
and
performance
estabilished
in
the
AWS
DIGISNAP
series.
This
lightweight,
easy-to-operate
instrument
has
many
outstanding
features
which
make
it
unique
in
its
class.
The
DSA-2002P
DIGISNAP
has
the
same
ranges
and
features
as
the
DSA-2002
with
the
addition
of
Peak
Hold
for
measuring
peak
voltage
or
current.
The
DSA-2003
DIGISNAP
is
a_
digital
AC/DC
snap-around
Volt-Ohm-Ammeter
designed
similarly
to
the
DSA-2002.
Additional
functions
include
DC
operation,
diode
test
function
and
an
output
millivolt
signal
for
recording
as
well
as
oscilloscope
current
waveform
viewing.
All
models
have
a
large
current
reading
capability
of
up
to
2000A.
A
thumb
operated
power/function
rotary
switch
allows
one
hand
operation
and
all
functions
are
displayed
on
the
LCD
display.
The
tear
drop
shaped
jaws
allow
access
to
tight
spots
that
could
not
be
reached
with
ordinary
snap-arounds.
A
data
hold
switch
is
provided
to
freeze
the
reading
in
situations
where
it
would
be
difficult
to
observe
the
display.
As
with
all
AWS
instruments,
the
DIGISNAP
Series
are
built
to
be
safe
dependable
and
rugged.
Their
ABS
plastic
housing
provides
superior
insulation
and
durability.
Overload
protection
is
provided
on
all
ranges
with
electronic
overload
protection
to
500Vac/dc
on
the
resistance
range.
Shielded
banana
plugs
and
recessed
input
terminals
keep
all
connections
safely
insulated.

DC
Current
Measurements
(DSA-2003)
When
the
jaws
of
the
DSA-2003
are
snapped
around
a
conductor
carrying
dc
current,
they
will
become
magnetized
as
part
of
their
proper
operation.
Even
after
the
current
is
removed,
a
slight
amount
of
magnetization
may
remain,
causing
the
instrument
to
be
slightly
off
zero.
This
effect
is
called
hysteresis.
The
magnitude
of
the
hystersis
effect
will
depend
upon
how
much
current
was
original
flowing
in
the
conductor.
Follow
these
instructions
carefully
to
avoid
inaccurate
readings
that
could
result
from
hysteresis.

Sec.6.6
Peak
Hold
Measurements
(for
Model
2002P
only)
When
taking
normal
measurements,
set
the
Peak
Hold
selector
switch
to
the
OFF
position.
When
taking
Peak
Hold
measurements,
set
the
Peak
Hold
selector
switch
to
the
10ms
or
100ms
position
only
after
the
test
leads
are
connected
to
the
circuit
under
test
or
the
transformer
jaws
are
clamped
onto
the
conductor.
The
peak
hold
display
may
read
higher
than
an
actual
value
to
be
measured
because
of
the
noise
that
may
develop
when
the
peak
hold
switch
is
set
before
the
test
leads
are
connected
or
the
transformer
jaws
clamped.
The
peak
hold
circuit
is
designed
to
select
a
10ms
or
100ms
response
time.
Choose
it
according
to
your
application
needs.
For
instance,
select
the
10ms
response
time
when
measuring
a
surge
voltage
or
current
that
will
occur
when
the
power
supply
is
turned
on.
The
100ms
response
time
is
recommended
for
measuring
the
starting
current
of
a
motor,
(a
stable
measurement
can
be
made
on
the
100ms
response
time
as
the
peak
hold
circuit
does
not
readily
respond
to
the
surge
current).
Slide
the
peak
hold
selector
switch
back
to
the
OFF
position
for
a
reset.
The
DSA-2002P
uses
an
analog
peak
hold
circuit
to
ensure
a
quick
response
to
input
current
and
voltage.
Because
of
the
nature
of
this
circuit
the
peak
hold
reading
may
gradually
vary
with
time
or
the
instrument
may
go
off
zero
by
several
counts
when
it
is
in
the
peak
hold
mode.
However,
this
does
not
indicate
a
faulty
condition.
It
is
likely
to
be
apparent
when
the
instrument
is
used
in
a
high
temperature,
high
humidity
environment.
The
instrument
will
restore
its
original
condition
when
returned
to
normal
temperature
and
humidity.

or
observing
the
current
input.
WARNING
The
COM
input
jack
and
the
output
jack
common
terminal
are
internally
connected.
Remove
the
test
leads
from
the
input
jacks
before
making
any
connections
to
the
output
jack.
Do
not
use
the
output
jack
when
taking
voltage
measurements.
1.
Obtain
access
to
analog
output
by
inserting

AC
or
DC
current
range.
The
output
voltage
signal
will
Lae
the
ram
whether
the
AC
or
DC
current
range
is
selected.
The
reading
displayed
on
the
LCD
is
effected
by
selecting
either
the
AC
or
DC
current
range,
so
it
is
recommended
that
the
appropriate
function
(AC
or
DC)
be
selected
if
the
LCD
reading
is
to
be
used
in
conjunction
with
the
output
jack
signal.
The
DC
position
will
display
on
the
LCD
the
average
value
of
the
input
current
and
the
AC
position
will
display
the
RMS
value
of a
sinewave
only.
For

multimeter.
3.
Press
the
trigger
to
open
the
jaw
and
encircle
the
one
conductor
in
which
the

input
Current
is
less
than
200A,
select
the
200A
range.
4.
The
readings
of
pure
DC
or
symmetrical
sinusoidal
AC
inputs
will
be
accurately
displayed
on
the
LCD.
In
addition,
any
type
of
waveform
will
be
available
at
the
output
jack,
provided
that
it
falls
within
the
frequency
specifications
of
the
instrument.
In
the
case
of
non-sinusoidal
current
waveforms,
the
LCD
readings
will
not
be
accurate,
but
the
output
voltage
signal
will
be
accurate.
NOTE:
Current
inputs
to
the
DSA-2003
for
use
with
the
output
jack
may
exceed
the
measurement
capabilities
of
the
instrument
(up
to
500A
on
the
200A
range
and
up
to
3000A
on
the
2000A
range).
The
output
signal
will
still
be
accurate
up
to
these
maximums
but
the
LCD
display
will
indicate
an
overrange
condition.
