Measurements Instruction Measure AC/DC Voltage 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and the red lead to the VΩHz Terminal. 2. Turn the rotary switch to or to 3. Touch the probes to the correct test points of the circuit to measure the voltage.
3. Press SELECT to toggle between AC/DC. 4. Break the circuit path to be measured, connect the test leads across the break and apply power. 5. Read the measured current on the display. *Do not measure current that exceeds the extremes as indicated in the Specifications.
*Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors before you test resistance. *Do not input voltage at this setting. Test for Continuity 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and the red lead to the VΩHz Terminal. 2. Turn the rotary switch to , press SELECT twice to toggle to the Continuity Mode.
2. Turn the rotary switch to , press SELECT once to toggle to the Diode Mode. 3. Connect the red probe to the anode side and the black probe to the cathode side of the diode being tested. 4. Read the forward bias voltage value on the display.
3. Connect the red probe to the anode side and the black probe to the cathode side of the capacitor being tested. 4. Read the measured capacitance value on the display once the reading is stablized. *Disconnect circuit power and discharge capacitors before you test capacitance.
Measure Duty Cycle 1. Connect the black test lead to the COM Terminal and the red lead to the VΩHz Terminal. 2. Turn the rotary switch to (applies to high frequency with low voltage), press SELECT once to toggle to the Duty Cycle Mode. 3.
Maintenance Beyond replacing batteries and fuses, do not attempt to repair or service the product unless you are qualified to do so and have the relevant calibration, performance test, service instructions. Clean the Product Wipe the product with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
2. Loosen the screw on the battery door and remove the battery door. 3. Replace the used batteries with new batteries of the same type. 4. Place the battery door back and fasten the screw. Replace the Fuses When a fuse is blown or do not work properly, it shall be replaced as below: 1.
