6. USER SELECT MODE
This mode allows you to save the resistance of a user wire (See NOTE below) for additional
measurements of unknown lengths of the same gauge wire. In addition, it enables you to
accurately measure the length of standard gauge wires. In this mode, you can measure the
length of any metal wire, the resistance of which can be measured, as well as Copper or
Aluminum wires.
NOTE: The sample length of user wires must be 5m in METER or 20ft in FEET
mode.
How to save the resistance of a user wire
Note: You will need a 5M (or 20ft in feet mode) sample length of the wire you are
programming into the meter. This will measure the resistance of that wire and
store a value to correctly measure longer lengths.
1. Turn on the meter and perform the calibration procedure first.
2. Allow the meter to attain the same temperature as the user wire.
WARNING: MAKE SURE WIRE UNDER TEST IS NOT
ENERGIZED. NEVER APPLY VOLTAGE TO INPUTS.
3. Strip the insulation on each end of the user wire.
NOTE: Make sure both ends of the wire under test are clean and the conductor is fully
exposed. The insulation must be stripped away so the Kelvin clips can be good connected
across the diameter of the wire.
4. Using the selector on the mete, turn to the decided memory location in the User Select
range. The meter has 8 internal memory locations from 1 to 8, and the selected memory
location number will illuminate at the top left corner of the display. For example, “user 1”
on the display means memory location 1 is being selected
If the selected memory location is occupied, the display shows “0000”.
If the selected memory location is empty, the display shows “no”.
5. Press the “FT” or “M” button to select the measurement unit.
6. Connect a Kelvin clip to one end of the user wire and the other Kelvin clip to the next end
of the wire.
7. Press “MEM” button to enter the Memory function mode. The “MEM” enunciator will
illuminate at the top of the display.
8. Press “CAL” button to store the resistance of the user wire to the selected memory
location.
9. If there have any stored resistance value in the selected memory location, the meter will
display “ SurE”. In this case, press “CAL” button again to store the new resistance value.
10. Press “MEM” button or turn the selector to any position will exit Memory function mode.
11. Disconnect the test leads from the meter after saving the resistance value.
Tips: User can write down the user wire data at the bottom of the rubber holster. There have a
Listing label for user to keep memory location record.
