Symbols Used in this Manual Battery Refer to the manual Double insulated Dangerous Voltage Direct Current Earth Ground Alternating Current Audible tone Fuse Canadian Standards Association Complies with EU Non-contact Voltage directives Making Measurements Verify Instrument Operation Before attempting to make a measurement, verify that the instrument is operational and the battery is good.
Measuring AC Voltage See Figure 1. Set the Function Switch to V. 2. Select the desired RANGE. The default AC voltage range is 2 V on the 15XP-A and 4 V on the 35XP-A. 3. Connect the test leads: Red to E, Black to COM. 4.
Measuring Resistance See Figure Ω 1. Set the Function Switch to 2. Select the desired RANGE (5XP-A, 15XP-A). 3. Connect the test leads: Red to E, Black to COM. 4. Turn off power to the circuit being measured. Never measure resistance across a voltage source or on a powered circuit.
Measuring Temperature (35XP-A only) See Figure 1. Set the function switch to appropriate °C or °F range. 2. Connect the K-type thermocouple to a TEMP adapter (XR-TA). Match the polarity of the adapter to the polarity of the thermocouple. 3. Connect the TEMP adapter to the E and COM inputs. Note: The 35XP-A is compatible with all K-type thermocouples.
Testing Logic Levels (15XP-A only) See Figure -13- The 15XP-A tests logic levels for TTL logic. The meter displays 0o plus a ∧ for a high-level (true) condition. The meter beeps and displays an 0o and a ∨ for a low-level (false) condition.
3. Remove and replace the 2 A fuse (15XP-A or 35XP-A) or 0.315 fuse (5XP-A). 4. Reassemble the meter. Fuse: Fast Blow 2 A/1000 V, minimum interrupt rating 30 kA (6 x 32 mm) (Amprobe FP200). ® Fast Blow 0.315 A/1000 V minimum interrupt rating 30 kA (6.3 x 32 mm)
