4-2 PRECAUTIONS AND PREPARATIONS FOR MEASUREMENT (1) DO NOT attempt to take any voltage or current measurement that maybe exceed the maximum range of this instrument. (2) Be sure that battery is correctly placed in the case and connected to the battery snap. (3) Make certain the range selected is greater than circuit current or voltage prior to attempting a measurement.
(1) Connect red test lead to “ V Ω “terminal and black test lead to “ COM” terminal. (2) Set Range Switch to range. (3) Connect Test Prods of test leads IN PARALLEL to the circuit being measured. (4) Read the Voltage value on LCD. 4-4 AC Voltage Measurement ( True RMS Measurement ) WARNING Maximum Input Voltage of AC VOLT Range is 750VAC.
(2) Set Range Switch to desired A range. and press AC / DC Switch to DC function. (3) Cut the power to the circuit being tested and Connect the instrument IN SERIES with the circuit , with the black test lead on the negative side and the red lead on the positive side...
4-8 Continuity Measurement & Diode test Press “ Red “ button to select " " or " " function. WARNING Before taking any in- circuit measurement, remove power from the circuit being tested and discharge all capacitors in the circuit. CONTINUITY MEASUREMENT (1) Connect red test lead to the "...
4-9 Resistance Measurement WARNING Before taking any in-circuit resistance measurement, remove power from the circuit being tested and discharge all Capacitors. (1) Connect red test lead to “ V Ω “terminal and black test lead to “ COM” terminal. (2) Set Range Switch to Ω range. (3) Connect Test Lead to the Circuit being measured and read the resistance Value on LCD.

If the input differs significantly from a sine wave, the reading is incorrect as a different conversion factor would relate the average value of the signal to its rms value (see table as below). Correct measurements of non- sinusoidal wave forms can be made directly with the true- RMS models.
4-12 Adaptive ( ADP ) Measurement (1) Connect the BLACK test lead to the COM terminal and the RED test lead to the “ V- Ω -ADP “ terminal. (2) Set the rotary switch to “ ADP “ position. (3) Connect the test leads across the source or load under measurement.
