  • Page 7: Operation

    Operation NOTES: Read and understand all warning and caution statements in this operation manual before using this meter. Set the function select switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use. AC Current Measurements WARNING: Ensure that the test leads are disconnected from the meter before making current clamp measurements.
  • Page 8: Resistance Measurements

    Resistance Measurements 1. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM terminal and the red test lead into the positive terminal. 2. Set the function switch to the Ω position. 3. Touch the test probe tips across the circuit or component under test. It is best to disconnect one side of the device under test so the rest of the circuit will not interfere with the resistance reading.
  • Page 9: Capacitance Measurements

    Capacitance Measurements WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and discharge all capacitors before taking any capacitance measurements. Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords. 1. Set the rotary function switch to the position. 2.
