  • Page 3 OVERVIEW The Victor 88E digital multimeter is a battery-driven 3-3/4” digital multimeter. It uses an LCD with a 1" display for easy reading. The 15 second backlight and overload protection make all types of operation more convenient. The digital multimeter has the function of measuring DCV, ACV, DCA, ACA, resistance, capacitance, frequency, temperature, duty cycle and diodes and acts as a continuity performance tester .

  • Page 4: Safety Notes

    SAFETY NOTES The instrument is designed according to IEC1010 standard (safety standard issued by International Electro Technical Committee). Please read the following before operation. Voltage is less than 36V and is a control and safety voltage. When measuring voltage higher than DC 36V, AC 25V, check the connection and insulation of test leads to avoid electric shock.

  • Page 12: Operation

    OPERATION Meter Layout, see Figure 1 1. LCD: displays the measuring value and unit. 2. Function keys: 2-1. SELECT key: DC /AC mode, temperature C/F, Diode / Continuity performance switch. 2-2. RANGE key: select auto range or manual range mode. Auto range is the normal mode, it will display AUTO symbol.
  • Page 13 auto power off and analog bar display in this mode. Press it more than 2 seconds, it exits MAX/MIN mode. 2-6. Hz/DUTY key: When measuring AC Voltage (Current), press it, meter switches to Frequency/duty cycle/Voltage (Current). When measuring the Frequency, it will switch frequency/duty cycle 1~99%.
  • Page 14 DCV Measurements 1. Insert the black test lead into the “COM” terminal and the red one to “V/Ω/Hz” terminal. 2. Turn the selector knob to range; 3. Auto range is the normal mode, it will display AUTO symbol. Press the RANGE key to change to the manual range mode, 400mV, 4V, 40V, 400V, 1000V range is selective;...
  • Page 15 ACV Measurements 1. .Insert the black test lead into the COM terminal and the red one into the V/Ω/Hz terminal. 2. Turn the selector knob to range. 3. Auto range is the original mode, it will display AUTO symbol. Press the RANGE key to change to the manual range mode, 400mV, 4V, 40V, 400V, 750V range is selective.
  • Page 16 DCA Measurements 1. Insert the black test lead into the COM terminal and the red one into the mA terminal (the Max. 400mA) or into the 20A terminal (Max.20A). When measuring μA DC use the FSG1 adapter between the meter leads and the control. 2.
  • Page 17 ACA Measurements 1. Insert the black test lead into the COM terminal and the red one into the mA terminal (maximum 400mA) or to the 20A terminal (maximum 20A) 2. Use the selector knob to set the proper ACA range, press the DC/AC key to select the measurement mode, and then connect the leads in series to the electric circuit under test.
  • Page 18 3. Auto range is the original mode; press the RANGE key change to the manual range mode. 4. When measuring the actual minimum resistance, short-circuit the test leads first, press the REL button and then test the resistance, it will now display the actual resistance.
  • Page 19 5. Place the test leads in parallel with the capacitor being tested. The red test lead is for the positive pole. LCD displays capacitance value. Note: Never input voltage or current to the VΩHz terminal when measuring capacitance. In order to assure an accurate reading, press the REL button to clear the reading before testing.
  • Page 20 The meter can still work if the input is higher than 10Vrms, but the accuracy is not guaranteed. In an RFI noise environment, you should use shielded cable to measure a low signal. When measuring high voltage circuits, no part of your body should touch the high voltage circuit.
