Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of Extech model MV-110, MV-120, or MV-130 digital multimeter. Properly used, this

meter will provide many years of reliable service. The meters contains a large 3-1/2 or 4-1/2 digit LCD with adjustable

viewing angle and provides such measurement functions as: DC and AC voltage, DC and AC current, resistance,

temperature, frequency, capacitance, hFe, battery, square wave output, diode, and continuity check depending upon the

model.

Safety

International Safety Symbols

WARNING: This indicates that a potentially hazardous condition which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious

injury.

CAUTION: This indicates that a potentially hazardous condition which, if not avoided, could result in injury or damage to

the meter.

Refer to the manual Hazardous voltages Double insulation

for further information may be present.

Safety Precautions

1. WARNING: Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death. Read and understand this users

manual before operating the meter.

2. Make sure any covers or battery doors are properly closed and secured.

3. Always remove the test leads before replacing the battery or fuses.

4. Inspect the condition of the test leads and the meter itself for any damage before operating the meter. Repair or

replace any damage before use.

5. Do not exceed the maximum rated input limits.

6. Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are greater than 25VAC rms or 35VDC. These

voltages are considered a shock hazard.

7. Always discharge capacitors and remove power from the device under test before performing Capacitance, Diode,

Resistance or Continuity tests.

8. Remove the battery from the meter if the meter is to be stored for long periods.

Operation

General Procedures

1. Apply power via ON/OFF switch. If the low battery symbol appears, replace the battery.

2. Set the function switch to the correct position before taking measurements.

3. Press the Display Release Button and set the display to a convenient viewing angle.

AC/DC Voltage Measurements (DO NOT EXCEED MAX INPUT LIMIT OF 1000VDC)

1. Connect the black test lead to the meter's COM socket and the red lead to the meter's "VΩF" socket.

2. Set the rotary switch to a "V" position range higher than the expected voltage.

3. Press the "DC / AC" button to select AC or DC measurement (for models MV-110 and MV-120 only).

4. Connect the test leads to the unit under test (load, circuit, etc.)

5. The value of the measured voltage will appear in the LCD display.

Resistance Measurement

1. Connect the black test lead to the COM socket and the red lead to the V/Ωsocket.

2. Set the rotary switch to the "Ω" range required.

3. Connect the test leads to the unit under test.

4. The value of the measured resistance will appear in the LCD display.
