1.
2. To measure current: Remove power from circuit, open circuit at
measurement point, connect meter in-series in the circuit using
the test leads, and apply power to circuit.The meter will auto-
range to display the measurement in the most appropriate range.
Do not attempt to measure more than 10A.
When measuring currents greater than 6A, a measurement
time of 30 seconds followed by 10 minutes of recovery time
is recommended.
CONTINUITY
1. Insert RED test lead into VΩ jack
5
, and BLACK test lead
into COM jack
4
, and rotate function selector switch
2
to the
Continuity/Resistance/Diode/Capacitance setting.
NOTE: The meter defaults to Continuity testing in this mode. Ensure
that the Continuity Testing icon is visible on the display. If not,
press the "SEL" button
11
until the icon appears.
2. Remove power from circuit.
3. Test for continuity by connecting conductor or circuit with test
leads. If resistance is measured less than 50Ω, an audible signal
will sound and display will show a resistance value indicating
continuity. If circuit is open, display will show " OL ".
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT attempt to measure continuity on a live circuit.
RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS
1. Insert RED test lead into VΩ jack
5
, and BLACK test lead
into COM jack
4
, and rotate function selector switch
2
to the
Continuity/Resistance/Diode/Capacitance setting.
NOTE: The meter defaults to Continuity testing in this mode. To
enter Resistance testing mode, press the "SEL" button
11
once.
2. Remove power from circuit.
3. Measure resistance by connecting test leads to circuit. The
meter will auto-range to display the measurement in the most
appropriate range.
