    2. USE 2.1. GETTING STARTED Switch the clamp on by pushing the slide switch to the 1V/A or the 10mV/A setting. The 1V/A setting corresponds to the 2A range. The 10mV/A setting corresponds to the 80A range. The ON indicator lights green. If it blinks, there remain less than 4 hours of use. If it fails to light, you must replace the battery (see §...

    If the OL indicator lights, it means that the current is too strong to be measured. If you are in the 1V/A range, switch to the 10mV/A range. „ Apply the conversion factor corresponding to the setting of the switch. 1 V/A 10 mV/A 150 mV...
