Operation
Electric shock hazard:
Contact with live circuits could result in severe injury or death.
Operating Procedure
1. Refer to the “Settings Table.” Set the selector to the proper setting, press
SELECT
(when instructed to
do so), and connect the test leads to the meter.
2. Refer to “Typical Measurements” for specific measurement instructions.
3. Test the unit on a known functioning circuit or component.
• If the unit does not function as expected on a known functioning circuit, replace the batteries.
• If the unit still does not function as expected, call Greenlee for technical assistance at
800-435-0786.
4. Take the reading from the circuit or component to be tested.
Settings Table
If the correct function is not present for the chosen switch position, press
SELECT
until the desired icon
appears.
The dual display options are shown along with the icons. In the table, “~V
Hz
” indicates that “~” and “V”
appear in the primary display, and “Hz” appears in the secondary display. This combination shows the AC
voltage measurement in the primary display and frequency in the secondary display.
