RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY MEASUREMENTS
1.
Insert
Black test lead
into the
negative COM jack
and
Red test lead
into the
Positive
(V) jack.
2.
Set the function switch to the
•)))
position.
3.
Use the multifunction
MODE
button to select resistance.
4.
Touch test probe tips across the circuit or component under
test.
IMPORTANT
: It is best to disconnect one side of the device under test so
the rest of the circuit will not interfere with the resistance reading.
5.
For Resistance tests, read the resistance on the LCD display.
6.
For Continuity tests, if the resistance is < 100
, a tone will sound.
DIODE MEASUREMENTS
1. Insert
Black test lead
banana plug into the
negative COM jack
and
Red test lead
banana plug into the
positive diode jack
.
2. Turn the rotary switch to the
•)))
position.
3. Press the
MODE
button until “ “ appears in the display.
4. Touch the test probes to the diode under test. Forward voltage will indicate 0.4V to 0.7V.
Reverse voltage will indicate “
OL
”. Shorted devices will indicate near 0mV and an open
device will indicate “
OL
” in both polarities.
CAPACITANCE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and
discharge all capacitors before taking any capacitance measurements. Remove the
batteries and unplug the line cords.
1. Set the Rotary Function switch to the cap position.
2. Insert
Black test lead
banana plug into the
negative COM jack
.
Insert
Red test lead
banana plug into the
positive (V) jack
.
3. Touch the test leads to the capacitor to be tested.
4. Read the capacitance value in the display
FREQUENCY AND DUTY CYCLE % MEASUREMENTS
1. Set the function switch to the
(V)
position.
2. Insert the
Black lead banana plug
into the
negative COM jack
and the
Red lead
banana plug
into the
positive (V) jack
.
3. Select Hz or % duty with the (
Hz
/%
)
button.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test.
5.
Read the frequency on the display.
TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, disconnect both test probes from any source of
voltage before making a temperature measurement.
1.
Set the function switch to
TEMP
2.
Insert Temperature Probe into
negative (COM) and (V) jacks
, making
sure to observe the correct polarity
3.
Select
C or
F with the
MODE
button
4.
Touch Temperature Probe head to the surface area you wish to measure.
Maintain constant contact with the part under test until the reading stabilizes
(approx. 30 seconds)
5.
Read the temperature in the display. The digital reading will indicate the proper
decimal point and value
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, be sure the thermocouple has been
removed before changing to another measurement function
DATA HOLD AND BACKLIGHT
To freeze the LCD meter reading, press the data hold button. The Data Hold button is
located on the left side of the meter (top button). While data hold is active, the
HOLD
display icon appears on the LCD. Press the data hold button again to return to normal
operation.
Note: The HOLD feature will activate when the Backlight is turned on. Press the HOLD key again
to exit Hold.
The backlight function illuminates the display and is used when the ambient light to too low
to permit viewing of the displayed readings. Press the (HOLD) button for one second to
turn the backlight on and press the button a second time to turn the backlight off.
MANUAL RANGING FEATURE
Auto-
Ranging is meter’s default setting. To deactivate press the
Range
button to go to
manual ranging. Each press of the range button will step to the next range as indicated by
the units and decimal point location. Press and hold the
Range
button for two seconds to
return to Auto-Ranging. NOTE: Manual ranging does not function in the AC Current,
Diode, and Continuity check functions
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
1. Remove Phillips head screw from back of meter
2. Open battery compartment
3. Replace dead battery with one
“9V” battery (NEDA1604, 6F22 006P)
4. Re-assemble the meter
