5.2.2 AC/DC Current Measurement (ACA, DCA)
The measurement of AC/DC current has four modes: DCA, ACA, (AC+DC)A and ACA +Hz.
1) Press function key
20A
.
2) Press
SELECT
key to select measurement mode.
3) According to poetical demands, press
REL
,
MAX/MIN
and
2nd VIEW
keys to have relative measuring or
record.
4) The meter is default in auto range mode and will automatically select a most suitable range. To select a
range manually for the measurement, press
RANGE
key to select a proper range. There are two ranges
to choose from: 8.0000A/20.000A
5) Connect the black test lead to “
COM
” terminal and the red test lead to “
20A
” terminal.
6) Other operations apply the same as explained in section 5.2.1.

5.3 Resistance Measurement
WARNING: To avoid damage to the meter or the measurement equipments disconnect circuit
power and discharge all high voltage capacitors before measuring resistance. Use the DC function to
confirm that the capacitor is discharged.
CAUTION: When measuring low resistance, the resistance of the test leads may cause an
error of 0.1
Ω
~0.5
Ω
in the test results. To avoid this error, first short the test leads, next press REL key.
The primary display will be null and the secondary display displays the resistance of test lead. Measure
the to-be tested resistance and the result will be displayed on the primary display.
The measurement of resistance has three modes: normal, continuity and high resistance.
Normal mode (
Ω
)
1) Press function key
OHM
.
2) According to practical demands, press
REL
,
MAX/MIN
and
2nd VIEW
keys to have relative measuring or
record.
3) The meter is in auto range mode and will automatically select a most suitable range. To select a range
manually for the measurement, press
RANGE
key to select a proper range. There are six ranges to
choose from: 800.00
