TEMPERATURE
1. Insert the K-type thermocouple into the VΩ
5
and COM
4
jacks (observe polarity markings on the thermocouple and
meter), and rotate the Function selector switch
2
to the
Temperature
setting.
NOTE:
The meter will default to the Fahrenheit scale in this mode.
To enter the Celsius scale, press the 'SEL' button
9
once. Ensure
that the appropriate icon (either
°F
or
°C
) appears on the display.
NOTE:
The meter may be set to default to the Celsius scale by
switching the meter ON from the OFF position with the Data hold
& Backlight button
6
depressed. To reset the default to the
Fahrenheit scale, repeat the switching-on sequence.
2. To measure the temperature, make contact between the
thermocouple tip and the object being measured. When the
thermocouple tip and object are in thermal equilibrium, the
measurement on the display will stabilise. The meter will auto-range
to display the measurement in the most appropriate range.
Remove the thermocouple before switching the meter
to other measurement functions.
The thermocouple included with the original purchase
is suitable for temperatures below 356°F/180°C only.
Tomeasure higher temperatures, a K-type thermocouple
with the appropriate measurement range should be used.

3. Measure the capacitance by connecting test leads across the
capacitor. The meter will auto-range to display the measurement
in the most appropriate range.
