Meter Operation

Non-Contact Voltage Sensing

First, rotate the function key to the NCV position. Place the sensing point marked with NCV close to an AC outlet (or any AC conductor such as light switches or power cords) and scan back and forth across the outlet. The meter beeps On/Off continuously and the Red NCV LED above the display flashes if the sensing antenna detects live voltage greater than 40V AC (50 -60 Hz). Voltages with frequencies higher than 60Hz or electrostatic charges may also be detected by the NCV sensing antenna. To differentiate between hot and neutral in an outlet, place the NCV tab directly next to each slot in the outlet. The tone (buzzer) will sound over the slot that is energized and not on the neutral slot. Either test lead can also be used to differentiate between the hot and neutral. Plug the red or black test lead into the V input jack on the meter. With the function switch in the NCV position, insert the probe end of just one probe into the slots on the outlet. The meter will beep and the Red LED will flash when a hot conductor is contacted.

NOTE: While the NCV is a helpful function, it is ALWAYS RECOMMENDED that the operator verify that any electrical conductor is completely de-energized and that no voltage is present by measuring for voltage AND CONFIRMING THAT NO VOLTAGE IS PRESENT and that all applicable PPE and lock out tag out procedures be followed before attempting any work on ANY electrical distribution system.

Lead Warning

Lead Warning: When inserting the test lead into any amperage input terminal, but the rotary function switch IS NOT set to the correct relative amperage position, the meter will beep at 3Hz, LCD will display "LEAd" and " ", flashes at 3Hz. If any amperage function is selected first, but the test lead IS NOT in the relative amperage input jack, the meter will also beep at 3Hz and the LCD will display "LEAd" and " ", flashes at 3Hz.

Fuse Warning

Fuse Notification: The test leads CANNOT be short circuited or used for measuring while testing the fuse.

1. If the 600mA/1000V fuse is blown, setting the rotary switch to the "mA" or "uA" setting, the LCD will display "FUSE" and " ", and the buzzer will beep continuously at the same time.
2. If the 11A/1000V fuse is blown, setting the rotary switch to the "A" setting, the LCD will display "FUSE" and " ", and the buzzer will beep continuously at the same time.

SEL Button

The SEL Button allows the user to toggle between multiple functions when the function dial is used to select a specific function. This can include but is not limited to toggling between degrees F and C, AC and DC voltage or current, continuity, resistance, capacitance and diode measurements.

Measuring AC ( ) or DC ( ·s ) Voltage

To assist with voltage readings, a bar graph will appear in the display.

AC V LoZ Setting* 61-357 Only

*Note: When measuring AC voltage, Ghost or stray voltages (caused by induced voltages coupling from one parallel conductor to the next as found when measuring one conductor in multiple conductor circuits) may cause an incorrect value. Selecting the Low impedance position (LoZ) on the dial, (see inset above) while measuring voltage with the 61-357 will defeat the influence of Ghost or Stray voltage.

Caution - Use caution when using the LoZ function on equipment that may maged by being connected to a low impedance source.

Verifying Continuity ( )

• Verify the circuit is de-energized.
• The meter will sense the level of resistance and beep if the resistance is less than 10 Ω's to confirm that continuity is present.

With proof of purchase from an authorized IDEAL distributor, a defective tester will be repaired or replaced with the same product or a functionally equivalent product, at the option of IDEAL INDUSTRIES, INC. during the warranty period, subject to verification of the defect or malfunction. Warranty does not cover consumables such as fuses, batteries, and excludes defects caused by leakage from batteries, abuse, mishandling, dropping, ordinary wear and tear, misuse, neglect, unauthorized repair, improper use, alterations, accidents or any causes beyond IDEAL's reasonable control. Consequential or incidental damages are not recoverable under this warranty. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This LIMITED WARRANTY gives you specific legal rights, which vary from state to state. This warranty constitutes the sole and exclusive remedy of the purchaser and the exclusive liability of IDEAL, and is in lieu of any and all other warranties, and expressly disclaims all other warranties, implied, or statutory as to merchantability, fitness for purpose sold, description, quality productiveness, or any other matter. No agent, distributor or other supplier has the authority to modify or amend this warranty or make other representations or warranties other than those contained in this warranty without express written authorization from IDEAL.
