 DIGITAL MULTIMETER OPERATION MANUAL 

 

1. INTRODUCTION 

This instrument is a high performance stability, battery operated, 3½ digital, 25mm high 
character jumbo LCD reading to 1999 multi-meter with the function of measuring DC and 
AC voltage, DC and AC current, Resistance and Capacitance, Diode and Continuity test, 
data hold. The Dual-slop A/D converter uses CMOS technology for auto-zero, polarity 
selection and over-range indication. Full overload protection is provided. Because of its 
outstanding features, it is most suitable for use in production line, lab, R & D, maintenance 
and repair work. 

 

2. SAFETY NOTE 

The meter meets the standards of IEC1010. Read the operation manual carefully before operation.

 

2-1

Do not input limit over-ranged. 

2-2

The voltage below 36V is safety. To avoid electric shock, check whether the test leads 

are connected correctly, whether the insulation is good when measuring over 36DCV or 
25ACV. 
2-3

Remove the test leads when changing function and range. 

2-4

To select correct function and range, beware of error operation.

 

2-5

Do not operate the meter if battery case and back cover is not fixed. 

2-6

Do not input voltage when measuring resistance. 

2-7

Remove test leads from test point and turn off the power before replacing battery and fuse.

4-2. DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT 

4-2- 1. Insert the black test lead to “COM” jack, the red one to V/

 jack. 

4-2-2. Set the range knob to a proper DCV range, connect the test leads across to the circuit 

under tested, the polarity and voltage of the point which red lead connect will display on 

LCD. 

 

NOTE:  

1.If the measured voltage is unsure beforehand, should set the range knob to the highest 

range, then, switch to a proper range according to the displayed value. 

2.If LCD displays “1”, it means over range, should set the range knob to a higher range. 

4-3.AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT 

4-3-1.Insert the black test lead to “COM” jack, the red one to V/

 jack. 

4-3-2. Set the range knob to a proper ACV range, connect the test leads across to the circuit 

under tested. 

NOTE:                       

1. If the measured voltage is unsure beforehand, should set the range knob to the highest range, 

then, switch to a proper range according to the displayed value. 

2.If LCD displays “1”, it means over range, should set the range knob to a higher range. 

4-4.DCA MEASUREMENT 

4-4-1.Insert the black test lead to “COM” jack and the red one to “mA” jack

max. 200mA

or 

insert the red one to “10A” jack

max. 10A

4-4-2.Set the range knob to a proper DCA range, connect the test leads across to the circuit 

under tested, the current value and polarity of the point which red lead connect will display on 

LCD.
