Page 5: 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. ALWAYS turn the function switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use. If “OL” appears in the display during a measurement, the value exceeds the range you have selected. -
Page 6: Mv Voltage Measurements
CAUTION: Do not measure AC voltages if a motor on the circuit is being switched ON or OFF. Large voltage surges may occur that can damage the meter. Set the function switch to the VAC/Hz/% position. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. Insert red test lead banana plug into the positive V jack. -
Page 7: 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. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. For current measurements up to 4000µA DC, set the function switch to the yellow µA position and insert the red test lead banana plug into the µA/mA jack. -
Page 8: 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. Set the function switch to the ΩCAPposition. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive ... -
Page 9: Diode Test
DIODE TEST Set the function switch to the Ω CAP position. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive V jack. Press the MODE button to indicate “ “and “V” on the display. Touch the test probes to the diode under test. -
Page 10: Temperature Measurements
TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS Set the function switch to the Temp position. Insert the Temperature Probe into the input jacks, making sure to observe the correct polarity. Press the MODE button to indicate “ºF” or “ºC” Touch the Temperature Probe head to the part whose temperature you wish to measure. -
Page 11: Autoranging/Manual Range Selection
4 – 20mA % MEASUREMENTS Set up and connect as described for DC mA measurements. Set the rotary function switch to the 4-20mA% position. The meter will display loop current as a % with 0mA=-25%, 4mA=0%, 20mA=100%, and 24mA=125%. AUTORANGING/MANUAL RANGE SELECTION When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into Auto Ranging. -
