  • Page 8: Dc Voltage Measurements

    Operating Instructions WARNING: Risk of electrocution. High-voltage circuits, both AC and DC, are very dangerous and should be measured with great care. 1. ALWAYS turn the function switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use. 2. If “OL” appears in the display during a measurement, the value exceeds the range you have selected.

  • Page 9: Ac Voltage (Frequency, Duty Cycle) Measurements

    AC VOLTAGE (FREQUENCY, DUTY CYCLE) MEASUREMENTS WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. The probe tips may not be long enough to contact the live parts inside some 240V outlets for appliances because the contacts are recessed deep in the outlets. As a result, the reading may show 0 volts when the outlet actually has voltage on it.

  • Page 10: Mv Voltage Measurements

    MV VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS CAUTION: Do not measure mV voltages if a motor on the circuit is being switched ON or OFF. Large voltage surges may occur that can damage the meter. 1. Set the function switch to the mV position. 2.

  • Page 11: Dc Current Measurements

    DC CURRENT MEASUREMENTS CAUTION: Do not make 20A current measurements for longer than 30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may cause damage to the meter and/or the test leads. 1. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. 2.

  • Page 12: Ac Current (Frequency, Duty Cycle) Measurements

    AC CURRENT (FREQUENCY, DUTY CYCLE) MEASUREMENTS CAUTION: Do not make 20A current measurements for longer than 30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may cause damage to the meter and/or the test leads. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. For current measurements up to 5000µA AC, set the function switch to the yellow µA position and insert the red test lead...

  • Page 13: Resistance Measurements

    RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and discharge all capacitors before taking any resistance measurements. Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords. 1. Set the function switch to the position. 2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack.

  • Page 18 CABLES Disconnect the cable from the line. Also disconnect opposite end to avoid errors due to leakage from other equipment. Check each conductor to gr ound and /or lead sheath by connecting one megohmmeter lead to a grou nd and /or lead sheather and the other megohmmeter lead to each of the conductors in turn.

  • Page 19: Autoranging/Manual Range Selection

    AUTORANGING/MANUAL RANGE SELECTION When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into AutoRanging. This automatically selects the best range for the measurements being made and is generally the best mode for most measurements. For measurement situations requiring that a range be manually selected, perform the following: 1.
