Input channel and Range
①When you use the meter, please pay attention that input channel should correspond to range,
otherwise, the meter will be malfunction.
AC signal, aviliable for 0~200Hz. When frequency is higher than 100Hz, the measuring accuracy
is ±1%FS.

Safe Caution
Please read the manual carefully before you use the meter.
※ Please comply with the below important points.
Warning
An accident may happen if the operation does not comply with the instruction.
Notice
An operation that does not comply with the instruction may lead to product damage.
The instruction of the symbol in the manual is as below.
An accident danger may happen in a special condition.
Warning
1.A safty protection equipment must be installed or please contact with us for the relative
information if the product is used under the circumstance such as nuclear control, medical
treatment equipment, automobile, train, airplane, aviation and equipment etc.. Otherwise, it
may cause serious loss, fire or person injury.
2.A panel must be installed, otherwise it may cause creepage (leakage).
3.Do not touch wire connectors when the power is on, otherwise you may get an electric shock.
4.Do not dismantle or modify the product. If you have to do so, please contact with us first.
Otherwise it may cause electric shock and fire.
5.Please check the connection number while you connect the power supply wire or input signal,
otherwise it may cause fire.
Caution
1
.This product cannot be used outdoors. Otherwise the working life of the product will become
shorter, or an electric shock accident may happen.
2.When you connect wire to the power input connectors or signal input connectors, the
moment of the No.20 AWG (0.50 mm) screw tweaked to the connector is 0.74n.m - 0.9n.m.
Otherwise the connectors may be damaged or get fire.
3.Please comply with the rated specification. Otherwise it may cause electric shock or fire, and
damage the product.
4.Do not use water or oil base cleaner to clean the product. Otherwise it may cause electric
shock or fire and damage the product.
5.
This product should be avoid working under the circumstance that is flammable, explosive, moist,
under sunshine, heat radiation and vibration. Otherwise it may cause explosion.
6.
In this unit it must not have dust or deposit, otherwise it may cause fire or mechanical malfunction.
7.Do not use gasoline, chemical solvent to clean the cover of the product because such solvent can
damage it. Please use some soft cloth with water or alcohol to clean the plastic cover.
