 Operating Manual

I. General Introduction

 

     This brand new /D Operating Manual is a handheld 
3-5/6 digit True RMS Digital Multi-meter featuring stable performance 
and high reliability. Its whole circuit design utilizes a large scale 
integrated circuit that uses ∑

ADC converter as its core and is 

further equipped with full function overload protection, making it an 
ideal tool for users to measure the followings: DC and AC voltage, 
electric current, resistance, capacitance, frequency, temperature 
(UT890D/C+), diode, triode and continuity test.

Safety Rules and Instructions

       ●  

This unit is designed and produced in strict accordance with 

GB4793, Safety Requirements for Electronic Measuring Instrument 
and Safety Standards coded as IEC61010-1 and IEC1010-2-032. It 
complies with safe standards, such as double insulation, over voltage 
(CAT II 1000V, CAT III 600V) and class of pollution II. Please follow 
the instructions contained in this manual, otherwise the protection 
provided by this unit may be impaired. 

       ●  

You should not use this unit unless its back cover is properly 

secured in place, otherwise you are exposed to shock hazard. 

       ●  

The range switch should be switched to a correct range.

       ●  

Check the insulation layer of the test leads to ensure no 

damaged or broken cable.

       ●  

The red and black test leads should be well inserted into the 

jacks that are in compliance with the measurement requirements to 
ensure good contact.

       ●  

The input signal should not exceed the specified limit value 

to avoid shock or unit damage.

       ●  

It is prohibited to change range when measuring voltage or 

electric current so as to avoid unit damage. 

       ●  

Damaged fuse must only be replaced with fuse with identical

 specification. 

     ●  

To avoid electric shock, the potential difference measured 

 between “COM” and earth “        ” should be no more than 1000V. 

    ●  

To avoid electric shock, test with great caution in case the 

 voltage to be measured maybe higher than DV 60V or AC 30Vrms.

    ●  

Battery should be replaced in time so as to ensure measurement 

 accuracy when the LCD displays “        ”.

    ● 

Power should be turned off immediately upon the test is completed 

 and battery should be taken out if it may not be used for a long 
 period of time.

    ● 

Do not use the unit under an environment with high temperature 

 and high humidity, especially not store it in a wet place as the 
 dampened unit may perform badly. 

    ● 

Please do not change the circuit of the unit arbitrarily so as to 

 avoid unit damage or safety hazard. 

    ● 

Maintenance: Please use wet cloth and mild detergent rather 

 than abrasive material or solvent for the cleaning of its exterior housing.

V. How to Use it:

Instructions before operating
(1). Once the unit is powered up, please check the 9V battery 

contained in this unit, and if the battery
voltage is insufficient, there will be a 
symbol “      ” being displayed on the 
screen, then the battery should be 
replaced to ensure measurement 
accuracy.
(2). The symbol “      ” located beside 
the jacks for test leads warns that for 
the prevention of internal circuit from 
being damaged, the input voltage or 
current should not exceed the rated 
value.
(3). Before measuring, the range switch should be switched into the 
range needed.
(4). Instrument Introduction (see Fig. 1):

 Input Jack

1. DC Voltage Measurement

(1). Insert the black test lead into “COM”, while insert the red test 
lead into “V”.  
(2). Switch the range switch into the range “          ”. Then connect 
the test leads in parallel with the power or load under test, the polarity 
shown by the unit is the polarity of the terminal connected by the 
red test lead. 

     Notes 

  

1) If the voltage being measured remains unknown, turn the range 
switch into the maximum range first and then gradually adjusting it 
downward.
2) If “OL” is shown on the LCD, it indicates that it has exceeded the 
range, so the range should be switched into a higher one.
3) The symbol “       ” besides the “V” jack indicates that no voltage 
higher than 1000V should be input into the unit, as though it is
 possible to display a higher voltage, but this may incur a risk of 
damaging internal wiring!
4) In case the input impedance is around 10MΩ, it may result in 
measurement error if such load is connected into a circuit with high 
impedance. Under most circumstances, if the circuit impedance is 
less than 10kΩ, then the error is ignored (0.1% or even lower).
5) Especially be cautious to avoid shock when measuring high voltage. 

2. AC Voltage Measurement

(1) Insert the black test lead into “COM”, while insert the red test 
lead into “V”.
