hi
all multimeter's have an ac/dc/ohm's ranging
in the AC part
if it is manual u will typ. have a high voltage range
ie 0-200 vac
in that range,look for the white and black wire's that go to the monitor
follw them up to the monitor chassic,the hot (black) is on 1 side of the fuse on the monitor ,
the white return ,as a rule goe's into a choke..after the fuse on the chassic,and to it's white return u should beable to read the :line: voltage:,with the machine turned on and the monitor pluged in..NOW BE VERY CAREFULL that is at line voltage
ie 120 vac and shorting that and or touching that will give the mother of all wake up calls
so chk it at the chassic fuse as i said above and u should have 120vac
this answer's your power to the monitor question..
my question to u is what type of moniotor are they using,and i will dig out it's service manual and try to guide u some more
