In order to set the default measurement mode when the device is turned on, select the mode, press the 
jog-wheel and hold for 2 beeps. This measurement setting will be 

stored in the device’s non

-volatile 

memory for all other measurements until selecting other parameters or Default in the menu. 

7.2.10 

Large Cap 

In this mode, capacitance and ESR of capacitors from 1 

μF

 to 40 mF are measured. The capacitance is 

measured at a frequency of 50Hz, and the capacitor's ESR is measured at the frequency of 100 kHz. 

Discharge Capacitors before testing! 

If open p-n junctions of semiconductor components cause an error in the measurements, then the 
screen shows the diode symbol and the direction of the p-n junction is shown instead of the primary 
parameter type. 

If the resistance of the component is less than 10 ohms, there will be short beeps. Before the first 
application in this sub-mode it is necessary to calibrate the device with both open and shorted probes. 

For the rejection of electrolytes based on ESR, two tables are stored in the memory of the device, one 
for standard aluminum capacitors and the other for 

Low ESR

 capacitors. Two additional numbers are 

displayed on the screen in this case: the first number is the quality of the capacitor. For standard 
aluminum capacitors, positive values indicate rejection, and for 

Low ESR

 rejected values are above -10. 

The second number is selected operating voltage of the capacitor in menu under C voltage: 6.3, 10, 16, 
2, 3, 50-63, 100, and 160+ Volts. This menu opens by clockwise turn of the jog-wheel. 

7.2.11 

Large Cap (1 uF to 40 mF) Settings 

 

Clockwise for 1 beep to open the mode menu. 

 

Clockwise for 2 beeps to make calibration eliminating the offset. Only short calibration is 
required. 

 

Counter clockwise for 2 beeps to toggle the test signal level between 0.65 Vrms and 0.1 
V peak-to-peak. 

7.2.12 

Super Large Cap > 40 mF Measurement 

• 

When in the Large Cap mode, counter clockwise for 1 beep to switch to DC capacitance 

measurement mode for Capacitors larger than 40 mF up to 680 mF. To speed up the settling 
of the readings, short the capacitor leads for 2-3 seconds before the measurements. Counter 
clockwise for 1 beep again to return to the normal Large Cap mode.
