1) Fully seat the test leads in the correct input
jacks, (-) black lead, (+) red lead.
2) Set the function/range switch to any one of
the AC voltage ranges and read the decibel
measurement on the bottom (red) scale of
the faceplate. Based on the AC voltage range
you selected, you will need to compute the
actual measurement by using the decibel
conversion chart located at the bottom right
of the faceplate.
Important: For absolute decibel measurements,
circuit impedance must be at least 600 ohms. -0-
decibels = 1 milliwatt in a 600 ohm impedance
(equivalent to 0.775 volts across 600 ohms).
9. Battery and Fuse Replacement
1) Remove the screw in the back cover of the
meter and carefully separate the back cover
from the front.
2) Note the polarity of the battery when
removing it from its compartment and replace.
3) Use F200mA 250V replacement fuses, GB
model GF-0306
4) Carefully replace the back cover and tighten
the screw. Do not overtighten, as this may
strip the threads in the meter housing.
