SAFETY INFORMATION
The following safety information must be observed to insure maximum
personal safety during the operation at this meter:
1. Do not use the meter if the meter or test leads look damaged, or if you
suspect that the meter is not operating properly.
2.Thismeterisnotrecommendedforhighvoltageindustrialuse;forexample,
not for measurements of 440 VAC or 600 VAC industrial power mains. The
unit is intended for use with low energy circuits to 600VDC or AC or high
energy circuit to 250 VAC or DC. Accidental misuse by connection across
a high voltage, high energy power source when the meter is set up for mA
measurement may be very hazardous.
3. Turn off power to the circuit under test before cutting, unsoldering, or
breaking the circuit. Small amounts of current can be dangerous.
4.Usecautionwhenworkingabove60Vdcor30Vacrms.Suchvoltagespose
a shock hazard.
5. When Using the probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards on the
probes.
6.Measuring voltagewhichexceedsthelimitsofthemultimetermaydamage

OPERATION
Before taking any measurements, read the Safety Information Section.
Always examine the instrument for damage, contamination (excessive dirt,
grease, etc.) and defects. Examine the test leads for cracked or frayed
insulation. If any abnormal conditions exist do not attempt to make any
measurements.
Max. Hold Feature
Press "MAX" to toggle in and out of the Maximun Hold mode.(holding the
highest reading.) In the MAX mode, the MAX annunciator is displayed and
maximun reading are stored in display register, If the new reading is higher
than the reading being displayed, the higher reading is transferred to the
display register. A "higher" reading is defined as the reading with the higher
absolute value.
The MAX hold function is disable in the frequency count mode, but the MAX
annunciator is still displayed.
Voltage Measurements
1. Connect the red test lead to the "VW" jack and the black test lead to the
"COM" jack.
2. Set the Function/Range switch to the desired voltage range and press the
"AC/DC" switch to toggle between the desired voltage type. If magnitude
of voltage is not known, set switch to the highest range and reduce until a
satisfactory reading is obtained.
3. Connect the test leads to the device or circuit being measured.
4.Fordc,a(-)signisdisplayedfornegativepolarity;positivepolarityisimplied.

Current Measurements
1. Set the Function/Range switch to the desired current range and press the
"AC/DC" switch toggle between to the desired current type.
2.Forcurrentmeasurementslessthan200mA,connecttheredtestleadtothe
µAmA jack and the black test lead to the COM jack.
3.Forcurrentmeasurementsover200mAorgreater,connecttheredtestlead
to the 10A jack and the black test lead to the COM jack.
4. Remove power from the circuit under test and open the normal circuit path
wherethemeasurementistobetaken.Connectthemeterinserieswiththe
circuit.
5.Usecautionwhenmeasuring10ampson10Arangefor60s,pleasewaiting
for 10 minutes for next measurement of 10 amps for safety reason.
Resistance and Continuity Measurements
1.SettheFunction/Rangeswitchtothedesiredresistancerangeorcontinuity
position.
2. Remove power from the equipment under test.
3. Connect the red test lead to the "VW" jack and the black test lead to the
"COM" jack.
4. Touch the probes to the test points. In ohms, the value indicated in the
display is the measured value of resistance. In continuity test, the beeper
sounds continuously, if the resistance is less than 100W.
WARNING
The accuracy of the functions might be slightly affected, when exposed to
a radiated electromagnetic field environment, eg, radio, telephone or
similar.

Diode Tests
1. Connect the red test lead to the "VW" jack and the black test lead to the
"COM" jack.
2. Set the Function/Range switch to the " " position.
3. Turn off power to the circuit under test.
4.Touchprobestothediode.Aforward-voltagedropisabout0.6V(typicalfor
a silicon diode).
5. Reverse probes. If the diode is good, "OL" is displayed. If the diode is
shorted, ".000" or another number is displayed.
6. If the diode is open, "OL" is displayed in both directions.
7.Ifthejunctionismeasuredinacircuitandalowreadingisobtainedwithboth
lead connections, the junction may be shunted by a resistance of less than
1kW. In this case the diode must be disconnected from the circuit for
accurate testing.
Capacitance Measurements
1. Set the Function/Range switch to the desired capacitance range.
2. Never apply an external voltage to the sockets. Damage to the meter
may result.
3. Insert the capacitor leads directly into the socket.
4. Read the capacitance directly from the display.
