OPERATION
4-1. Panel description
1. LCD: displays the measuring value and unit.
2. Function key:
2-1. SELECT key: DC /AC mode, temperature C/F, Diode /
Continuity performance switch.
2-2. RANGE key: select auto range or manual range mode. Auto
range is the normal mode, it will display
'
AUTO
'
symbol. Press it to
change to manual range. Press it more than 2 seconds, it will return to
the auto range mode.
2-3. HOLD key: press it, the presently measured value is held on
LCD and HOLD symbol displays. Press it again,
'
HOLD
'
symbol
disappears, and the meter exits the holding mode.
2-4. REL key: press it, reading clears and goes to relative value
measurement mode.
'
REL
'
symbol displays, press it again,
'
REL
'
symbol disappears, and the meter exits the relative mode.
2-5. MAX/MIN key: press it, meter goes to
'
MAX
'
mode, it will hold
the max value of measured reading. Press it again, goes to
'
MIN
'
mode, it will hold the minimum value
of measurement. No auto power off and analog bar display in this mode. Press it more than 2 seconds,
it exits MAX/MIN mode.
2-6. Hz/DUTY key: When measuring AC Voltage (Current), press it, meter switches to
Frequency/duty cycle/Voltage(Current). When measuring the Frequency, it will switch frequency/duty
cycle 1 to 99%.
3. Selector Knob: Selects measuring function and range
4. Temperature (positive) and V
Ω
Hz
terminal
5. Voltage, resistance, frequency, capacitor and temperature terminal
6. COM terminal
7. Less than 400mA current testing terminal and temperature (negative) terminal
8. 20A current terminal
4-2. DCV measurement
1. Insert the black test lead into
'
COM
'
terminal and the red one into
'
V/
Ω
/Hz
'
terminal.
2. Turn the selector knob to
range;
3. Auto range is the normal mode, it will display
'
AUTO
'
symbol. Press the RANGE key to change to
the manual range mode, 400mV, 4V, 40V, 400V, 1000V range is selective.
4. Connect the leads in parallel across the electric circuit under test, LCD displays polarity and voltage
under test connected by the red test lead.
Note
1. Operator should first set the select knob to the highest range, if operator has no idea about the range
of voltage under test, then select the proper range based on the displayed value. If the LCD displays
'
OL
'
, it means the meter is over the maximum value of this range, select a higher range.
2. Never input a voltage over 1000VDC.
3. Be careful while measuring a high voltage. DO NOT touch the high voltage circuit or test leads.
4-3. ACV measurement
1. Insert the black test lead into the
'
COM
'
terminal and the red one into the
'
V/
Ω
/Hz
'
terminal.
2. Turn the selector knob to
range.
3. Auto range is the normal mode, it will display
'
AUTO
'
symbol. Press the
'
RANGE
'
key to change to
the manual range mode, 400mV, 4V, 40V, 400V, 750V range is selective.
