1) Set the function switch to the VAC position.
2) Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (COM) jack.
3) Insert red test lead banana plug into the positive (VΩCAP) jack.
4) Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test.
5) Read the voltage in the display. The display will indicate the proper
decimal point, value and symbol (AC, V, etc).
DC CURRENT MEASUREMENT
CAUTION: Do not make current measurements on the 10A scale for
longer than 30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may cause damage to the
meter and/or the test leads.
1) Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (COM) jack.
2) For current measurements up to:
• 4000µA DC - set the function switch to the µA position and insert the
red test lead banana plug into the (µA) jack.
• 400mA DC - set the function switch to the mA range and insert the red
test lead banana plug into the (mA) jack.
• 10A DC - set the function switch to the A position and insert the red
test lead banana plug into the 10A jack.
3) Press the mode button until “DC” appears in the display.
4) Remove power from the circuit under test, then open up the circuit at
the point where you wish to measure current.
5) Touch the black test probe tip to the negative side of the circuit.
6) Touch the red test probe tip to the positive side of the circuit.
7) Apply power to the circuit.
8) Read the current in the display. The display will indicate the proper
decimal point, value and symbol.
AC CURRENT MEASUREMENT
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, do not measure AC current on any
circuit whose voltage exceeds 250V AC.
CAUTION: Do not make current measurements on the 10A scale for
longer than 30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may cause damage to the
meter and/or the test leads.
1) Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative (COM) jack.
2) For current measurements up to:
