Warning To avoid electric shock or injury, read the following carefully before using. This appliance is only for household use. Turn off the power switch after using. Before maintenance or storage, turn off the power and let it cool down to room temperature. 4. Use the multimeter only as specified in this operating manual, otherwise the protection provided by the multimeter may be impaired.
Thank you for purchasing the Stahl Tools Digital Soldering Test Station. Its desktop design combines a multimeter, power supply, and variable temperature soldering iron all-in-one unit. This enables you to create or repair, power, and test your work saving time, space, and money compared to having three separate units.
Back of unit Soldering Station This soldering iron tool is controlled automatically by the micro-processor. The digital control electronics, high-quality sensor, and heat exchange system guarantees precise temperature control at the soldering tip. The highest degree of temperature precision and optimal dynamic thermal behavior under load conditions is obtained by the quick and accurate recording of the measured values in a closed control circuit.
• Maximum output current: 1A Safety information Test probe • This test probe is designed for use only with DSTS. • Technical specification: The maximum voltage is 1,000V, and the maximum current is 10A. • Operating environmental conditions: The multimeter is suitable for indoor use. Do not use or store the multimeter in an environment of high temperature, humidity, explosives, flammables or strong magnetic field. The performance of the meter may deteriorate if the unit becomes wet. Use...

Measurement Operation DC Voltage Measurement (see Figure 2) Warning To avoid injury to you or damage to the multimeter from electric shock, please do not attempt to measure voltages higher than 500V although readings may be obtained. The DC voltage ranges are: 200 mV, 2000 mV, 20V, 200V and 500V. To measure DC voltage, connect the multimeter as follows: 1. Insert the red test lead into the VΩmA terminal and the black test lead into the COM terminal.

DC Current Measurement (see Figure 3) Warning Never attempt an in-circuit current measurement where the voltage between terminals and ground is greater than 60V. If the fuse burns out during measurement, the meter may be damaged or the operator may be hurt. Use proper terminals, functions and range for the measurement.
Diodes and Continuity Measurement (see figure 5) Warning To avoid damage to the meter or to the device under test, disconnect circuit power and discharge all the high-voltage capacitors before diodes. Use the diode test to check diodes, transistors, and other semiconductor devices.
