PAGINA 4 DI 4

7. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

7-1 Attention before operation 

7-1-1 Check 9V battery. If the battery voltage is less than 7V, display will 

show “     ”, the battery should be replaced at this time to ensure mea-

suring precision.

7-1-2 Pay attention to the “    ” besides the input jack which shows that the 

input voltage or current should be within the specified value.

7-1-3 The range switch should be positioned to desired range for measu-

rement before operation.

7-2 Measuring DC Voltage

7-2-1 Connect the black test lead to COM jack and the red to VΩmA jack.

7-2-2 Set the rotary switch at the desired V      range position.

7-2-3 Connect test leads across the source or load under measurement.

7-2-4 You can get reading from LCD. The polarity of the red lead connec-

tion will be indicated along with the voltage value.

NOTE: 

1.  When the value scale to be measured is unknown beforehand, set the 

range selector at the highest position.

2. When only the figure’1’ or ‘-1’ is displayed, it indicates over-range situa-

tion and the higher range has to be selected. 

3. “    ” means you can’t input the voltage more than 600V, it’s possible 

to show higher voltage, but it may destroy the inner circuit or pose a 

shock. 

4.Be cautious against shock when measuring high Voltage. 

7-3 Measuring AC Voltage

7-3-1 Connect the black test lead to COM jack and the red to VΩmA jack.

7-3-2 Set the rotary switch at the desired V~ range position.

7-3-3 Connect test leads across the source or load under measurement.

7-3-4 You can get reading from LCD. 

NOTE: 

1.  When the value scale to be measured is unknown beforehand, set the 

range selector at the highest position.

2. When only the figure’1’ or ‘-1’ is displayed, it indicates over-range situa-

tion and the higher range has to be selected. 

3. “    ” means you can’t input the voltage more than 600V, it’s possible to 

show higher voltage, but it may destroy the inner circuit or pose a shock. 

4.  Be cautious against shock when measuring high Voltage.

7-4  Measuring DC Current

7-4-1 Connect the black test lead to COM jack and the red to the VΩmA 

jack  for  a  maximum  200mA  current,  for  a  maximum  10A  current, 

move the red lead to the 10A jack.

7-4-2 Set the rotary switch at the desired A range position.

7-4-3 Connect test leads in series with the load under measurement.

7-4-4 You can get reading from LCD. The polarity of the red lead connec-

tion will be indicated along with the current value.

NOTE:

1. When the value scale to be measured is unknown beforehand, set the 

range selector at the highest position. 

2. When only the figure’1’ or ‘-1’ is displayed, it indicates over-range situa-

tion and the higher range has to be selected.

3. “    ” means the socket mA’s maximum current is 200mA and 10A’s ma-

ximum current is 10A, over current will destroy the fuse. Since 10A is 

not fused, the measuring time should be less than 1 second to prevent 

precision from affecting by circuit heating.

7-5  Measuring Resistance

7-5-1 Connect the black test lead to COM jack and the red to VΩmA jack.

7-5-2 Set the rotary switch at the desired Ωrange position.

7-5-3 Connect test leads across the resistance under measurement.

7-5-4 You can get reading from LCD. 

NOTE:

1. When only the figure’1’ or ‘-1’ is displayed, it indicates over-range situa-

tion and the higher range has to be selected. 

2. For measuring resistance above 1MΩ, the mete may take a few seconds 

to get stable reading.

3. When the input is not connected, i.e. at open circuit, the figure ‘1’ will be 

displayed for the over-range condition.

4. When checking in-circuit resistance, be sure the circuit under test has 

all power removed and that all capacitors have been discharged fully.

5. The value scale to be measured is unknown beforehand, set the range 

selector at the highest position.

7-6  Diode Testing 

7-6-1 Connect the black test lead to COM jack and the red to VΩmA jack.  

 

(the polarity of red lead is ‘+’)

7-6-2  Set the rotary switch at the      range position.

7-6-3  Connect the red lead to the anode and the black lead to the cathode 

 

of the diode under testing.

7-6-4  You can get a reading from LCD.

NOTE:

1. The meter will show approximate forward voltage drop of the diode.

2. If the lead connections is reversed, only ‘1’ will be displayed.

7-7  Continuity Testing

7-7-1  Connect the black test lead to COM jack and the red to VΩmA jack.

7-7-2  Set the rotary switch at the      range position.

7-7-3  Connect test leads across two points of the circuit under testing. 

7-7-4  If continuity exists (i.e. resistance less than about 50Ω), 

 

built-in buzzer will sound.

NOTE:

If the input open circuit, the figure ‘1’ will be displayed. 

8. Maintenance 

8-1 Before attempting to remove the battery door or open the case, be sure 

that test leads have been disconnected from measurement circuit top 

avoid electric shock hazard.

8-2 To avoid electrical shock, remove test leads from measurement circuits 

before replacing the fuse. For protection against fire, replace fuses only 

with specified ratings: F-250mA/600V fuse.

8-3 Your must replace the test leads if the lead is exposed, and should 

adopt the leads with the same specifications as origin.

8-4 Use only moist fabric or small amount of detergent but not chemical 

solution for cleaning.

8-5 do not use the meter before the back cover is properly closed and 

screw secured.  Upon any abnormality, stop operation immediately and 

send the meter for maintenance.

8-6 Please take out the battery when not using for a long time.
