AKTAKOM ATK-2250 can be used together with an oscilloscope or external multimeter. Therefore follow the below steps:

1. Set the rotary switch to «A» or «~A».
2. Connect the test leads (they are not included into the standard accessories kit) to «+» and «COM» respectively.
3. Connect these sockets with the similar sockets of the multimeter or, using a special cable, with the oscilloscope socket and the display will show the measured value
