    When in the Data HOLD mode, press the HOLD button to get out of the HOLD mode and press the POWER button to shut the off. When setting the alarm value, it is required to press the POWER or AL 3 button for 3 seconds to shut off. When the instrument is turned on it will automatically calibrates and go into resistance measurement mode. If it doesn’t calibrate properly the LCD will show “ER”. The error could be from the jaw not being closed properly or from dirt build up on the metal surface of the clamp. Resistance Measurement When instrument is turned on and “OL Ω” is displayed on the LCD you can measure the resistance. Pull the trigger to open the clamp and clamp on the calibration loop being measured to read the resistance value. If the unit is beeps and the display flashes, the resistance measurment is exceeding the crirtical set alarm. While in Data HOLD mode press the HOLD button to exit and press the POWER button to power off. While in MR mode, press the SAVE button to exit the status and continue to measure. When setting the critical alarm value it is required to press the POWER button or AL 3 button for 3 seconds to exit the mode and continue to measure. While in current test mode press the Ω button to change to resistance test mode.

  • Page 8 Current Measurement Once powered on, press the “A” button to go into current mode displaying AC 0.00mA (as shown in picture). Pull the trigger and clamp on the wire to read the current value. Display showing OL A: Current being measured exceed the clamps max. When the instruments beeps and the display flashes it means the current being measured exceeds the alarm critical value implemented. While in Data HOLD mode, press the HOLD button to exit the status and continue to measure. While in MR mode, press the SAVE button to exit the status and continue to measure. While setting the critical alarm value it is required to press the POWER button or AL 3 button for 3 seconds to exit the mode and continue to measure. While in resistance test mode press the A button to change to current test mode.

  • Page 9 Data Hold/Unlock/Store While in test mode, press the HOLD button to save the present value. When the display shows HOLD, the hold value can be set as a group of data and the number is automatically stored. Press the HOLD button again to cancel hold, and the LCD symbol will disappear. Up to 99 groups of data can be stored. When the memory is full, the MEM symbol will flash on the LCD. Under the data inquiry mode, press the SAVE button to exit the data inquiruy and hold, store the data. While setting the critical alarm value it is required to press the POWER button or AL 3 button for 3 seconds to exit the mode and continue to hold and store data. The data will not be lost when instrument is turned on and off. Accessing Saved Data Press the SAVE button to enter inquiry mode and the first data group will be display. Press the right and left arrows to move through the stored data. If no data is stored it will display as shown in picture.
