Essentially I have a meter that has 3 inputs. I am using it to measure voltage and current on a single phase 60Hz 208V line. The other two inputs are not being used.
The thing is a have a DC signal I would like to measure as well. That DC voltage can either be 3V, 6V. 9V, or 12V.
Basically I want to be able to use this meter to detect that DC voltage but it only accepts AC. Therefore is there a simple inverter (I mean simple) that I can build that will take that DC voltage and create a 60Hz sinewave of some voltage level for each DC voltage level? Meaning if the voltage level of the DC signal changes it would change the AC sinewave level and I can read it in a meter.
Reasoning: This meter has a TCP/IP connect and I don't want to add another device out there (better yet can't) so I want to use this device since I have remote capability.
Actually frequency should really matter. I only care about having a measurable voltage AC signal.
Thanks!
