General 

The instrument is a high performance, high accuracy, 3 5/6 dual 

display DMM w/usb connector multimeter, it uses the LCD with 

24mm high figure to make the reading clear, the display simple and 

the operation convenient. 

The instrument can measure DC and AC voltage, DC and AC 

current, Resistance, Capacitance, Frequency, Duty Circle, 

Transistor, Diode and Continuity test; And it also has the features of 

Bar Graph, Unit Indication, Data Hold, Relative Value Measurement 

(REL), USB Interface, AUTO/MANUAL range selection, Auto Power 

Off and Alarm Buzzer. The instrument adopts the directly driven 4 

digits microprocessor and dual-integral A/D converter, which 

provide the high solution and high accuracy digital displaying driver. 

Because of its outstanding features, it is an excellent tool and most 

suitable for lab, factory, maintenance and repair users. 

 

Open-package Inspection 

Open the package box and take out the instrument, check the 

following accessories carefully. If any accessory was lost or
