4) OPERATION DC Voltage, AC Voltage, Hz Frequency functions Inputs are made through the test leads terminals. Slide-switch on defaults at DC voltage. Press SELECT button momentarily to select AC voltage. Press the Hz push-button momentarily to activate Hz Frequency function in the following slide-switch functions: DCV &... - Page 7 Note: DC 400.0mV range is designed with 1000MΩ high input impedance for least current drain in measuring small signals, and can cope better with most commercially available voltage output transducers/adapters. The non-zero display reading is normal when the meter inputs are open circuit, which will not affect actual measurement accuracy.
- Page 8 CAUTION Measuring Resistance, Continuity, Diode or Capacitance function on a live circuit will produce false results and may damage the instrument. In many cases the suspected component must be disconnected from the circuit to obtain an accurate measurement reading.
- Page 9 Ω Resistance, and Continuity functions Inputs are made through the test leads terminals. Slide-switch on defaults at Ω. Press SELECT button momentarily to select Continuity function which is convenient for checking wiring connections and operation of switches. A continuous beep tone indicates a complete wire.
- Page 10 ACA Current clamp-on function Inputs are made through the jaws clamps for non-invasive ACA current measurements. CAUTION Press the jaw trigger and clamp the jaws around only one single conductor of a circuit for load current measurement. Make sure the jaws are completely closed, or else it will introduce measurement errors.

HOLD The hold feature freezes the display for later viewing. Press the HOLD button momentarily to activate or exit this feature. The max feature compares and displays the measured maximum value as fast as 30ms with auto-ranging capability. Press the MAX button for 1 second or more to activate or exit the max feature in the following functions: DCV, ACV &... - Page 12 Battery replacement The meters use standard 3V alkaline button battery (ANSI/NEDA-5004LC, IEC-CR2032). In models ACD-10 PRO & ACD-10 TRMS PRO, one battery are used. Loosen the two screws from the case bottom and remove the bottom case. Slide the battery out the side of the holder and replace with a new battery (observe polarity).
