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.
• Set the rotary function switch to the

position.
• Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. Insert the red test lead
banana plug into the positive V jack.
• Press the MODE key to switch the Capacitance functions.
• Read the capacitance value in the display.
Temperature Measurements
• Set the function switch to the TEMP (°C or °F) position.
• Insert the temperature probe into the input jacks, making sure to observe the correct
polarity.
• Read the temperature in the display.
• Press the
MODE key to switch the Unit (°C or °F).
Flexible Coil Current Measurements
• Set the function switch to the Flexible coil position.
• Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. Insert the red test lead
banana plug into the positive V jack.
• Read the current in the display.
• Press the
MODE key to switch the AC, DC and AC+DC current.
• Press the RANGE key to switch range. 1000mA, 10A, 30A, 40A, 100A, 300A, 400A, 1000A,
3000A.
DC Current Measurements
• Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack.
• For current measurements up to 6000μA DC, set the function switch to the μA position
and insert the red test lead banana plug into the μA/mA jack.
• For current measurements up to 600mA DC, set the function switch to the mA position
and insert the red test lead banana plug into the μA/mA jack.
• For current measurements up to 10A DC, set the function switch to the 10A position and
insert the red test lead banana plug into the 10A jack.
• Press the
MODE
button to indicate “
=
” on the display.
• Read the current in the display.
AC Current Measurements
CAUTION: Do not make 10A current measurements for longer than 30 seconds. Exceeding
30 seconds may cause damage to the meter and/or the test leads.
• Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack.
