“safety information” and “warning and procedures methods: related notes” carefully before using the meter. The MS8239C is a small hand-held, safe and reliable • Check the case before using the meter. Don't use the 3.5” digital auto measuring range multi-meter with meter with damaged case.
• When connecting circuits, connect the common test Electric Symbols line first, then connect the charged test line. When Important safety information disconnecting circuits, disconnect the charged test line first, then disconnect the common test line. AC (Alternating Current) • Before measuring resistance, continuity, and diodes, first turn off power and discharge all high voltage DC (Direct Current) capacitors.
(8) All common input jacks for measuring (connected Meter Appearance with the black test probe). (9) Positive input jack of voltage, resistance, capacitance, temperature, frequency, mA current, diode and continuity (connected with the MS8239C AUTO MAX red test probe) Display DIGITAL MULTIMETER Autorange...
Keys Operation Measuring Operation AC/DC Voltage Measurement: “FUNC” key: Function selection key, switch measurement function Rotate function selection switch to voltage by pressing “FUNC” key, combined with switch measurement position. “HOLD” key: Press “FUNC” key to select AC or DC voltage Data hold key, press “HOLD”...
Turn off the circuit to be tested. The black test Connect black and red test probe to COM input probe is connected to one end of disconnected jack and VΩmA input jack, respectively. circuit (low voltage relatively), and the red test Measure the resistance of circuit to be tested with probe is connected to the other end of disconnected other ends of test probes.
Capacitance Measurement: Continuity Measurement: Rotate function selection switch to capacitance Rotate function selection switch to continuity measurement position, and turn off the power to measurement position, and turn off the power to the circuit to be tested the circuit to be tested If needed, press “FUNC”...
Temperature Measurement The meter will display the diode's forward bias voltage value. If the test probe polarity is reversed, Rotate function selection switch to temperature the meter will display “OL”, which distinguishes (select Celsius degree or Fahrenheit degree as the diode's cathode and anode. required) measurement position.
Maximum input current: grade mA: 200mA DC or AC To clean input socket: RMS; grade 10A: 10A DC or AC RMS Turn off the meter and pull out all the test probes When measured current is greater than 2A, the from the input jack.
Replace Fuse Warning To avoid electric shock or personal injury, before opening back cover to replace fuse, turn off the meter and disconnect the test probe from the measurement circuit. To replace fuse: Turn off the power to the meter. Remove all test probes from the input jacks.
