DIGITSL MULTIMETER 

OPERATION MANUAL 

The meter is a high performance, high accuracy, 3 3/4-digit, 32mm digit high by 

LCD displaying meter. The function includes DCV, ACV, DCA, ACA, 

resistance ,capacitance, frequency, temperature, duty cycle    measurement, triode, 

diode and continuity test. Also with the function of unit signal displaying ,relative 

value measuring ,auto range/ manual range switch ,auto power off    and warning 

function etc. 

SAFETY NOTES 

The meter meets with IEC1010standard. Read the notes before operating. 

 Before measuring, check the test leads carefully. 

 Do not input a value over allowable limited when measuring to avoid electric 

shock meter damage. 

 Be careful when measuring voltage over DCV60V, ACV40V. 

 To select correct function. 

 The test leads should be taken away from the testing point when changing 

function. 

 Never take measurement when the test leads are in current terminal. 

 Do not try to modify the circuit.
