4. Operating instructions

Warning!

Risk of electrocution. High-voltage circuits, both AC and DC are very dangerous and should be measured with great care.

1. Always push the power pushbutton to the OFF position when the meter is not in use. This meter has Auto OFF that automatically shuts the meter OFF if 15 minutes elapse between uses.

2. If "OL" appears in the display during a measurement, that value you are measuring exceeds the range you have selected. Change to higher range.

Note:

On some low AC and DC voltage ranges, with the test leads not connected to a device, the display may show a random, changing reading. This is normal and is caused by the high-input sensitivity. The reading will stabilize and give a proper measurement when connected to a circuit.

1. Press the "POWER" pushbutton to turn the meter on and off.

4.1. Autoranging / manual range selection

When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into Auto-Ranging. This automatically selects the best range for the measurements being made and is generally the best mode for most measurements. For measurement situations requiring that the range be manually held, perform the following:

1. Press the "RANGE" button. The "AUTO" indicator will extinguish and the currently selected range will be held.
2. Press the "RANGE" button to step through the available ranges until you select the range you want.
3. Press and hold the "RANGE" button for 2 seconds to exit the manual ranging mode and return to "AUTO" mode.

1. Press the PEAK button and "PEAK" and "MAX" appear in the display. The meter updates this display each time a higher positive peak value occurs.
2. Press the PEAK button again and "MIN" appears in the display. The meter updates this display each time a lower positive peak value occurs.
3. Press and hold the PEAK button for longer than 1 second to exit "Peak" mode.

The "automatic switch-off" function is automatically deactivated in this mode.

5.4. Minimum and maximum value function

1. Press the MAX / MIN button to activate the maximum value function. The display symbol "MAX" appears. The measuring device shows the maximum display and holds this value until a new maximum value is measured.

2. Press the MAX / MIN button again and the "MIN" symbol appears. The measuring device shows the minimum value display and holds this value until a new minimum value is measured.

3. To exit MAX / MIN mode, press and hold the MAX / MIN button for approx. 2 seconds.

5.5. 4 - 20mA measuring function

4 - 20 mA currents are used as control signals for industrial applications and can be measured with this multimeter.

1. Connect the device to the current loop to be measured as described for a mA (milliampere) measurement.
2. Set the function switch to the 4-20mA% position
3. The meter will display the current loop as a percentage:

$$ 0 \mathrm{mA} = -25 \% $$

$$ 4 \mathrm{mA} = 0 \% $$

$$ 20 \mathrm{mA} = 100 \% $$

$$ 24 \mathrm{mA} = 125 \% $$

5.6. DC Voltage measurements

Caution: Do not measure DC voltages if a motor on the circuit is being switched ON or OFF. Large voltage surges may occur during the ON or OFF operations that can damage the meter.

1. Set the function switch to the "V" position.

2. If "AC" appears in the display, press the "MODE" pushbutton until "DC" appears in the display.

3. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive V jack.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test. Be sure to observe the correct polarity (red lead to positive, black lead to negative).
5. Read the voltage in the display. The display will indicate the proper decimal point and value. If the polarity is reserved, the display will show (-) minus before the value.

5.7. AC voltage measurements

Warning:

Risk of Electrocution. The probe tips may not be long enough to contact the live parts inside some 230 V outlets for appliances because the contacts are recessed deep in the outlets. As a result, the reading may show 0 volts when the outlet actually has voltage on it. Make sure the probe tips are contacting the metal contacts inside the outlet before assuming that no voltage is present.

Caution:

Do not measure AC voltages if a motor on the circuit is being switched ON or OFF. Large voltage surges may occur during the ON or OFF operations that can damage the meter.

4. Read the resistance in the display. The display will indicate the proper decimal point, value and symbol.

When you short the test leads in the 400 Ω range, your meter display a small value (no more than 0.3 Ω). This value is due to your meter's and test leads internal resistance. Make a note of this value and subtract it from small resistance measurements for better accuracy.

5.11. Continuity check

Warning:

To avoid electric shock, never measure continuity on circuits or wires that have voltage on them.

1. Set the function switch to the "OHM" position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana jack into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana-plug into the positive jack.

3. Press the "MODE" push button until the "◀))))" symbol appears in the display.

4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit or wire you wish to check.

5. If the resistance is less than 150 ohms (P 3355) or 35 ohms (P 3360), the audible signal will sound. The display will also show the actual resistance.

5.12. Diode test

Warning:

To avoid electric shock, do not test any diode that has voltage on it.

1. Set the function switch to " " position.
2. Press the "MODE" button until the "→" symbol appears in the display.
3. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive jack.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the diode or semiconductor junction you wish to test. Note the meter reading.
5. Reverse the probe polarity by switching probe position. Note this reading.
6. The diode or junction can be evaluated as follows:

A: If one reading shows a value and the other reading show OL, the diode is good.
B: If both readings are OL, the device is open.
C: If both readings are very small or 0, the device is shorted.

Note: The value indicated in the display during the diode check is the forward voltage.

5.13. Frequency / Duty cycle measurement

1. Set the function switch to the "Hz" position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana jack into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive Hz jack.
3. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test.
4. Read the frequency in the display. The digital reading will indicate the proper decimal point, symbols (Hz, kHz, MHz) and value.
5. Press the "MODE" button to display duty cycle in %.

5.14. 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 function switch to the "CAP" | position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana jack into the negative COM jack and the red test lead banana plug into the positive jack.
3. Touch the test leads to the capacitor to be tested. The display will indicate the proper decimal point, value and symbol.

5.15. Temperature measurements

Warning:

To avoid electric shock, disconnect both test probes from any source of voltage before making a temperature measurement.

Insert the adapter in the input socket for temperature measurements.

Insert the K-type thermocouple into the temperature socket, making sure to observe the correct polarity. Touch the temperature probe head to the part whose temperature you wish to measure. Keep the probe touching the part under test until the reading stabilize (about 30 seconds). 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 any other measurement function.

6. Replacing the fuses

WARNING!

To avoid electric shock, disconnect all the test probes before removing the fuse. Replace only with the same type of fuse. Not note remove the top cover. Service should be performed only by qualified personnel.

CAUTION!

For continued protection against fire or other hazard, replace only with fuse of the specified voltage and current ratings.

Follow these steps to replace the fuse:

1. Press ON/OFF button to turn the meter off and disconnect the test probes.
2. Remove the Battery cover (screws B) and the battery.
3. Remover the back cover by unscrewing the 6 screws (A)
4. Remove the blown fuse. Use only a fuse with the proper size and value 500mA/1000V (6,3x32mm) or 10A/1000V (10x38mm)
5. Replace the back cover, the Battery and the battery cover.
