How Do I Test the Fuse?

To test for a blown fuse, complete the following steps.

  1. Using a DMM test probe, connect the HI (V) terminal and probe the DMM current (mA or A) connector on the hardware.
  2. Launch the NI VirtualBench application.
  3. In the Digital Multimeter (DMM) area, click the ohm icon to put the DMM in resistance mode.

If the fuse is blown, the display shows OVER Ω, OVER kΩ, or OVER MΩ, indicating a disconnected circuit path. Replace the fuse and complete the procedure again.
