- Page 11 Connect the RED test lead to the SOURCE + terminal. Connect the BLACK test lead to the SOURCE - terminal. Connect the YELLOW test lead to the SENSE + terminal. Connect the BLUE test lead to the SENSE - terminal. Connect the BLUE miniature plug of the clip-type test lead with temperature sensors to the TEMP.
- Page 12 The zero-adjustment function is to zero the range of resistance. The reading during zero adjustment will be taken as zero and will be used to calibrate subsequent measurements. Using the supplied zero-adjustment board, zero-adjustment can be carried out according to the AC four terminal method.
- Page 13 Short the SOURCE and SENSE of the clip type test lead with the temperature sensor together as shown in the image below: The other procedure is the same as the pin-type test lead zero adjustment. Press the key, appears on the display and the display is locked. Press the key again to exit.
- Page 14 Press key again to store the setting and exit. Connect the yellow miniature plug of the DCA current adaptor to the meter DCA CLAMP ADAPTOR jack. USE DCA CURRENT ADAPTOR: Press the key of the DCA Current Adaptor to turn on the adaptor, the POWER LED will light. If the LOW BATTERY LED lights, you should replace the battery.
