WARNING

:

 

To

 

prevent

 

electric

 

shock

 

and

 

damage

 

to

 

the

 

meter

 

or

 

personal

 

injury,

 

do

 

not

 

measure

 

voltages

 

that

 

may

 

exceed

 

100V

 

AC

 

rms.

 

NOTE:

 

If

 

the

 

test

 

leads

 

are

 

disconnected

 

or

 

if

 

the

 

voltage

 

measured

 

is

 

<

 

1.5V

 

the

 

LED

 

will

 

be

 

green.

 

 

1.

 

Use

 

the

 

probe

 

cover

 

if

 

making

 

measurements

 

on

 

category

 

III

 

or

 

above

 

installations

  

2.

 

Set

 

the

 

function

 

switch

 

to

 

the

 

LOGIC

 

position.

 

3.

 

Insert

 

the

 

black

 

test

 

lead

 

banana

 

plug

 

into

 

the

 

negative

 

(common)

 

jack

 

at

 

the

 

bottom

 

of

 

the

 

meter.

 

4.

 

Connect

 

the

 

black

 

test

 

lead

 

to

 

the

 

circuit’s

 

ground

 

(

)

 

terminal.

 

5.

 

Hold

 

down

 

the

 

Mode

 

(M)

 

button

 

and

 

touch

 

the

 

test

 

probe

 

to

 

the

 

circuit

 

for

 

measurement.

 

The

 

LEDs

 

near

 

the

 

tip

 

of

 

the

 

meter

 

will

 

indicate

 

the

 

current

 

logic

 

level.

 

6.

 

If

 

the

 

measurement

 

is

 

0~1.5V,

 

the

 

Green

 

LED

 

will

 

light

 

and

 

the

 

display

 

will

 

show

 

a

 

down

 

arrow,

 

indicating

 

that

 

the

 

logic

 

test

 

result

 

is

 

a

 

LOW

 

(‘0’)

 

condition.

 

7.

 

If

 

the

 

measurement

 

is

 

1.5~3.5V,

 

the

 

Green

 

and

 

Red

 

LEDs

 

will

 

be

 

OFF.

 

8.

 

If

 

the

 

measurement

 

is

 

3.5~5V,

 

the

 

Red

 

LED

 

will

 

light

 

and

 

the

 

display

 

will

 

show

 

an

 

up

 

arrow,

 

indicating

 

that

 

the

 

logic

 

test

 

result

 

is

 

a

 

HIGH

 

(‘1’)

 

condition.

Maintenance

 

WARNING:

  

To

 

avoid

 

electrical

 

shock,

 

disconnect

 

the

 

test

 

leads

 

from

 

any

 

source

 

of

 

voltage

 

before

 

removing

 

the

 

back

 

cover

 

or

 

the

 

battery

 

cover.

 

 

WARNING:

 

To

 

avoid

 

electrical

 

shock,

 

do

 

not

 

operate

 

the

 

meter

 

until

 

the

 

battery

 

cover

 

is

 

in

 

place

 

and

 

fastened

 

securely.

 

This

 

meter

 

was

 

designed

 

to

 

provide

 

years

 

of

 

dependable

 

service.

 

However,

 

if

 

the

 

following

 

guidelines

 

are

 

not

 

followed,

 

the

 

dependability

 

of

 

the

 

meter

 

can

 

be

 

compromised:

 

1.

 

KEEP

 

THE

 

METER

 

DRY

.

 

If

 

it

 

gets

 

wet,

 

wipe

 

it

 

off

 

and

 

allow

 

it

 

to

 

dry

 

before

 

use.

 

2.

 

USE

 

AND

 

STORE

 

THE

 

METER

 

IN

 

NORMAL

 

TEMPERATURES.

 

Environmental

 

extremes

 

can

 

shorten

 

the

 

life

 

of

 

the

 

electronic

 

parts

 

and

 

distort

 

or

 

melt

 

plastic

 

parts.

 

3.

 

HANDLE

 

THE

 

METER

 

GENTLY

 

AND

 

CAREFULLY.

 

4.

 

KEEP

 

THE

 

METER

 

CLEAN.

 

Wipe

 

the

 

case

 

occasionally

 

with

 

a

 

damp

 

cloth.

 

Do

 

not

 

use

 

chemicals,

 

cleaning

 

solvents,

 

abrasives,

 

or

 

detergents.

 

5.

 

USE

 

ONLY

 

FRESH

 

BATTERIES

 

OF

 

THE

 

RECOMMENDED

 

SIZE/TYPE.

 

6.

 

IF

 

THE

 

METER

 

IS

 

TO

 

BE

 

STORED

 

FOR

 

A

 

LONG

 

PERIOD

 

REMOVE

 

THE

 

BATTERIES

  

7.

 

Repairs

 

should

 

only

 

be

 

implemented

 

by

 

trained

 

personnel.
