Operation
POWER BUTTON and AUTO POWER OFF FEATURE
1. Use the POWER button to turn the unit ON or OFF. When the unit is powered up, a short self-
test will ensue after which the display will stabilize.
2. This meter can either be powered by one 9V battery or an AC adapter.
3. When the battery symbol appears on the LCD display, replace the battery as soon as possible.
Low battery power may cause inaccurate readings and erratic meter operation.
4. This instrument is equipped with Auto Power OFF which turns the meter off after 10 minutes of
inactivity. To override this feature; press and hold the MODE button until the display shows
(auto power off de-activated) or (auto power off activated).
FUNCTION SLIDE SWITCH
Slide the Function switch on the side of the meter to the desired function (Voltage or Current)
MODE
Press the MODE button to select either SOURCE (output) or MEASURE (input)
UNIT BUTTON
Press the UNIT button to select:
1. Voltage mode: mV or V in source.
2. Current mode: mA or % in source or measure
OUTPUT ADJUST BUTTONS
Press the buttons to increase or decrease the output voltage or current value in the source
mode.
1. Press the button once to increase the value in one digit steps.
2. Press and hold the button to increase the value in 10 digit steps.
3. Press and hold the button > 2 sec and then press the to increase the value in 100
digit steps
4. To decrease the value, use the button as described above.
ZERO BUTTON
The ZERO button manually zeros the display in the MEASURE mode.
1. Set the meter to the MEASURE mode
2. Short the input jack
3. Press and release the ZERO button.

MEM BUTTON
The memory feature provides 5 user settable source values for stepped calibration outputs. The
feature is available for Voltage, mA and % in the SOURCE mode. The memory values are stored in
nonvolatile memory and are not erased when power is turned off.
Sourcing from the stored memory values:
1. Select the Source mode
2. Press the MEM button. The M1 icon (memory location 1) will appear in the display and the
value stored in that location will be displayed and sourced.
3. Repeated pressing of the MEM button will step through the 5 memory locations.
NOTE: The SOURCE icon will blink when the output value has not reached a stable level.
The common cause for the SOURCE icon to remain blinking is that the load impedance is
too high in the current mode or too low in the voltage mode.
Storing values into memory:
1. Select and display a memory location (M1 to M5)
2. Press the buttons to adjust the display to the desired source value.
3. Press and hold the MEM button for > 2 seconds. The displayed value will be stored into the
displayed memory location.
Default memory values.
Five common source values are permanently programmed in memory as the default values.
These values can be replaced by user selected values.
To reset the meter to the default memory values:
1. Turn the meter on and select the SOURCE mode.
2. Press and hold the POWER button for >4 seconds. will briefly appear in the display
and the default values will be stored into memory.
Default Memory Values
M1 M2 M3 M4 M5
mV 0mV 500mV 1000mV 1500mV 2000mV
V 2V 5V 10V 15V 20V
mA 4mA 8mA 12mA 16mA 20mA
% 0% 25% 50% 75% 100%
Over-range / Under-range Indication
Signals above or below the units ranges will be indicated by HHHH for above and LLLL for
below.

Measure and Source
MEASURE (Input)
In this mode, the unit will measure voltage or current.
1. Select Voltage or Current on the Function switch.
2. Turn the meter ON
3. Press the MODE button to select MEASURE
4. Press the UNIT button to select mA or % if current is selected.
5. Connect the Calibration Cable to the meter.
6. Connect the Calibration Cable to the device or circuit under test.
7. Read the measurement on the LCD display.
SOURCE (Output)
In this mode, the unit will source (output) voltage or current.
1. Select Voltage or Current on the Function switch.
2. Turn the meter ON
3. Press the MODE button to select SOURCE
4. Press the UNIT button to select V or mV if voltage is selected or to select mA or % if current
is selected.
5. Connect the Calibration Cable to the meter.
6. Connect the Calibration Cable to the device or circuit under test.
7. Use the buttons to select the desired output value. Use the LCD display to verify the
output level. Alternatively, use the stored calibration values in memory as described in the
MEM button section.
8. For the -25% to 125% output range the output is 0 to 24mA.
