Contact Temperature Measurement
1. To avoid electric shock, before taking a contact temperature
measurement disconnect both test probes from any source of voltage.
2. Set the rotary function to the °
C
/°
F
position.
3. Insert the included Temperature Probe into the negative COM and
the positive V terminals, making sure to observe the correct polarity.
4. Press the
SELECT
button to change between °C and °F.
5. Place the Temperature probe onto the area being measured. Keep
the probe in place until the reading stabilizes (approx. 30 seconds).
6. The LCD will display the reading.
NOTE:
The meter will display "OL" if there is an open input or
a temperature over range. To avoid electric shock, be sure the
thermocouple has been removed before changing to another function.
Non-Contact Voltage (NCV) Detection
1. Set the rotary function to the
NCV
position.
NOTE:
Remove test leads from the meter prior to attempting NCV tests.
Always verify the NCV function on a known live circuit before performing
your tests. Do not use the NCV function if the display does not show EF
when the function switch is turned to the NCV position. If the meter does
not switch on when the NCV mode is initiated, check the batteries.
2. Place the probe near an AC voltage location. If AC voltage is
present, the meter will emit an audible beep, the LCD will display
dashes "---" and the NCV indicator will light up.
NOTE:
As the AC voltage signal increases, the frequency of the beeps
and the number of dashes on the LCD screen will increase. Receptacles
in recessed sockets or differences in socket may result in false readings.
