1. DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT

 

WARNING

: MAXIMUM INPUT IS 450V DC. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN 

WORKING WITH HIGH VOLTAGES. NEVER APPLY THE TEST LEAD TO THE MEASUR-

ING CIRCUIT WHEN CHANGING THE POSITION OF THE FUNCTION SWITCH. 

NOTE: The meter is auto ranging and will automatically display the correct 
voltage within the overall range of the meter.

 Set the function switch to 

VOLT/Hz/%

.

 If ʻDCʼ does not show on the display, push the SELECT button until 

it appears.

 Apply the test leads to the circuit to be measured. Ensure that the 

black lead is connected to the negative side of the circuit and red 

lead to the positive.

 Read the displayed voltage.

 If the minus (-) sign appears it means the voltage is negative at the 

point being measured. 

 If ʻOLʼ appears on the display, it indicates over-range. Immediately 

remove test leads from the measuring circuit to avoid any damage 

to the meter. The input voltage should not exceed the measure-

ment capability of this meter.

2. AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT

 

WARNING

: MAXIMUM INPUT IS 450V AC. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN 

WORKING WITH HIGH VOLTAGES. NEVER APPLY TEST LEADS TO THE MEASURING 

CIRCUIT WHEN CHANGING THE POSITION OF THE FUNCTION SWITCH.

NOTE: The meter is auto ranging and will automatically display the correct 
voltage within the overall range of the meter.

 Set the function switch to 

VOLT/Hz/%
