Non-Contact AC Voltage Measurements
1. Touch the probe tip to the hot conductor or insert into the hot side of the electrical outlet.
2. If AC voltage is present, the detector light will illuminate.
NOTE
: The conductors in electrical cord sets are often twisted. For best results, rub the
probe tip along a length of the cord to assure placing the tip in close proximity to the
live conductor.
NOTE
: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity or other sources of
energy may randomly trip the sensor. This is normal operation
Flashlight
Press and hold the top button to turn the flashlight on. Release the button to turn the flashlight
off.
Data Hold & Backlight button
To freeze the current reading on the LCD, press the “
Data Hold & Backlight
” key. The
word HOLD will appear on the LCD while the meter is in the Data Hold mode. To release the
Data Hold function and return the meter to normal operation, press the “Hold Backlight” key
again. The word HOLD will switch off. The backlight function illuminates the display and is used
when the ambient light to too low to permit viewing of the displayed readings. Press the
Data
Hold & Backlight
button for 2 second to turn the backlight on and press the button a
second time to turn the backlight off.
Peak Hold
(
only ACA 200A Range
)
The Peak Hold function captures the peak AC/DC current 10~282.8A. The meter
can capture peaks as fast as <1 0 millisecond in duration.
MAX/MIN (
DCA,DCV,ACV, Resistance range
)
1. Press the
MAX/MIN
key to activate the MAX/MIN recording mode. The display
icon "
MAX
" will appear. The meter will display and hold the maximum reading
and will update only when a new “max” occurs.
2. Press the
MAX/MIN
key and “
MIN
” will appear The display icon "
MIN
" will
appear. The meter will display and hold the minimum reading and will update
only when a new “min” occurs
3. Press the
MAX/MIN
key and a “
MAX MIN
” will appear. The meter will display
the present reading, but will continue to update and store the max and min
readings.
4. To exit MAX/MIN mode press and hold the
MAX/MIN
key for 2 seconds.
DCA ZERO
The DC Zero feature removes offset values and improves accuracy for DC current
measurements.
To perform a zero, select ADC and with no conductor in the jaw:
1. Press the DC ZERO button 2 Sec. to zero the display. “ZERO” will appear in the display.
The offset value is now stored and removed from all measurements.
2. To view the stored value, press the DC ZERO button. “ZERO” will flash and the stored
value will be displayed.
3.
To exit this mode, press and Hold the ZERO button until “ZERO” is no longer in the
display.
True RMS (ACA or ACV)
The term stands for “Root-Mean-Square,” which represents the method of calculation
of the voltage or current value. Average responding multimeters are calibrated to read
correctly only on sine waves and they will read inaccurately on non-sine wave or
distorted signals. True rms meters read accurately on either type of signal.
Battery Replacement
1. Remove the one rear Phillips head screw
2. Open the battery compartment
3. Replace the Requires two “AAA” batteries (UM4 R03)
4. Re-assemble the meter
WARNING:
Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always test the Voltage Detector on a
known live circuit to verify proper operation
