1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND PROCEDURES This instrument complies with IEC/EN61010-1 relative to electronic measuring instruments. For your own safety and to avoid damaging the instrument follow the procedures described in this instruction manual and read carefully all notes preceded by this symbol When taking measurements: ...
1.2. DURING USE Read the recommendations which follow and the instructions in this manual: CAUTION An improper use may damage the instrument and/or its components or injure the operator. When the instrument is connected to circuits never touch an unused terminal. ...
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION HT7 performs the following measurements: DC voltage with 2-wire method AC voltage with 2-wire method AC voltage with 1-wire method (polarity detection) Phase sequence indication Continuity test with buzzer Voltage measurement with low impedance input The measure is displayed with indication of measurement unit both in numerical mode and as bargraph.

4.4. DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT CAUTION The maximum input for DC voltage is 690V. Do not measure higher voltages to avoid risks of electrical shocks or serious damages to the instrument. symbol is lighted up whenever the voltage between the probes ...
4.5. AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT CAUTION The maximum input for AC voltage is 690V. Do not measure higher voltages to avoid risks of electrical shocks or serious damages to the instrument. symbol is lighted up whenever the voltage between the probes ...
4.6. AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT WITH LOW INPUT IMPEDANCE CAUTION The maximum input for AC voltage is 690V. Do not measure higher voltages to avoid risks of electrical shocks or serious damages to the instrument. symbol is lighted up whenever the voltage between the probes ...
4.7. 1-WIRE AC VOLTAGE DETECTION (POLARITY) CAUTION The maximum input for AC voltage is 690V. Do not measure higher voltages to avoid risks of electrical shocks or serious damages to the instrument. The 1-wire AC voltage mode should be used as a quick voltage detection test with no voltage value displaying.
4.8. PHASE SEQUENCE INDICATION CAUTION The maximum input for AC voltage is 690V. Do not measure higher voltages to avoid risks of electrical shocks or serious damages to the instrument. symbol is lighted up whenever the voltage between the probes exceeds 50V, even if the batteries are low or have been removed.
4.9. CONTINUITY TEST CAUTION Before taking the continuity test, disconnect the circuit under test from any power source and discharge all capacitors. 1. Perform the preliminary Autotest (see § 4.3). 2. Connect the L1 and L2 probes to the object under test (see Fig.
