Digital True RMS Multimeter Instruction Manual 

1.

 

GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

This multimeter  with highly stable performance is a reliable 3 6/7 digit digital multimeter. It uses the LCD with 23mm-high figure to make the 

reading clear and make operation more convenient.

 

This multimeter can test DCV, ACV, VSD, DCA, ACA, resistance, capacitance, frequency, temperature, duty cycle, transistor, diode, and continuity. 

This meter holds functions including true RMS, analog bar and unit symbol display, data holding, relative value measuring, maximal/minimal value 

measuring, auto/manual range switching (RANGE), auto power off, backlight and warning functions. To assure high accuracy and resolution, it 

adopts an 8-bit microprocessor and a dual integral A/D conversion IC as its core which can drive LCD directly. It is an ideal tool for labs, factories 

and radio-technology.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 

The instrument is designed according to IEC1010 standard (safety standard issued by International Electro technical Committee). Please read the 

following before operation. 

2.1 Check the connection and insulation of test leads to avoid electric shock 

2.2 To avoid electric shock and damage to the meter, do not input voltage higher than DC 1000V or AC 750V during measurement. 

2.3 When measuring voltage higher than DC 60V or AC 40V, please be careful. 

2.4 Select correct function and range to avoid fault operation. 

2.5 Please move the test leads away from test points when switching the function. 

2.6 Please don’t input voltage in current terminal. 

2.7 Please don’t modify the circuit arbitrarily, it may cause safety problem
