9 Product description

The digital multimeter (multimeter) displays measurements on a digital display (display). The multimeter features a digital 60000-count display (count = smallest display value). The multimeter monitors the correct socket assignment. The multimeter beeps and displays a warning when the sockets are not assigned correctly. This increases the operational safety of the multimeter for the user.

The multimeter switches off automatically after a preset time if no buttons are pressed. This protects the batteries and extends the battery life. The automatic shut-off feature can be preset and disabled manually.

The multimeter can be used to take measurements up to CAT III 1000 V/CAT IV 600 V. It is suitable for use in hobby and professional applications.

The multimeter can be placed on a level surface using the fold-out stand for better readability.

The battery and fuse compartment can only be opened when all test leads have been disconnected from the multimeter. When the battery and fuse compartment are open, the test leads cannot be inserted into the measurement sockets. This is a built-in safety feature to protect the user.

A switchable Bluetooth® interface enables device operation using a smartphone/tablet with Bluetooth® LE 4.0 interface. The free measurement app compatible with Android or iOS devices can be found on the public download portals. The app also allows recording your measurements.

It is available for Android devices from version 6.0 or later and iOS devices from version 11.0 or later (iPhone 5 or later).

Control dial (E)

Individual measurement modes are selected using the control dial. Automatic range selection (“Autorange”) is enabled in most measurement modes. The measurement range will be selected automatically. The current measurement ranges must be set manually. Always start current measurements with the largest measurement range, and then switch to a smaller range if necessary.

The control dial features an indicator light that shows the setting position. Use the “SELECT” button to switch to a sub-mode when the measurement mode has more than one function (e.g. to switch from resistance measurement to diode test or continuity test or from AC to DC current). The function is toggled with each press.

To switch the multimeter off, move the control dial to the "OFF" position. Always turn the multimeter off when it is not in use.

11 Taking measurements

Never exceed the maximum permitted input values. Never touch circuits or parts of circuits when they may contain voltages greater than 33 V/ACrms or 70 V/DC! Danger to life!

Measurements can only be taken when the battery and fuse compartment is closed. Cables cannot be inserted when the compartment is open.

Before measuring, check the connected test leads for damage, such as cuts, tears and kinks. Never use defective test leads! Danger to life!

When taking measurements, do not touch any area beyond the grip markings on the probe tips.

Only connect the two test leads that you require to take measurements. For safety reasons, remove all unnecessary test leads from the multimeter before taking a measurement.

Measurements in electrical circuits rated at >33 V/AC and >70 V/DC must only be carried out by qualified and trained personnel who are familiar with the relevant regulations and the associated hazards.

Check the multimeter for functionality before each measurement. An incorrect check result indicates a possible malfunction. The multimeter must be checked.

“OL” (overload) indicates that the measurement range has been exceeded.

11.1 Switching the multimeter on and off

Turn the control dial (E) to select the desired mode.

The optimal measurement range is automatically selected (except in current mode). When measuring a current, always start with the largest measurement range, and then switch to a smaller range if necessary. Always disconnect the test leads from the measured object before switching to another mode.

To turn the multimeter off, move the control dial to the "OFF" position. Always turn the measurement device off when it is not in use.

Before storing the multimeter, insert the test leads into the high-impedance measurement sockets (COM and V). This helps to prevent errors when making subsequent measurements.

The included test lead plugs are fitted with transport protection caps. These caps must be removed before inserting the test leads into the measurement sockets.

Before using the multimeter, you must insert the included batteries. For more information on inserting/replacing the batteries, see "Cleaning and care".

11.2 Incorrect wiring alarm

The multimeter automatically detects which sockets are connected to the test leads. If the test leads are connected to the wrong sockets (which can be dangerous for the user and damage the multimeter), the multimeter triggers an acoustic and optical alarm.

If you switch to another measurement mode (except current mode) when the test leads are connected to the sockets, the multimeter triggers an alarm. The alarm is also triggered when the measuring input is switched from the 10 A socket to the mAμA one.

If the alarm is triggered and “Check InPut” (followed by the relevant socket) appears on the display, check that the leads are connected to the correct sockets and that you have selected the correct measurement mode.

If the alarm is triggered, check that you have selected the correct measurement mode and that the cables are connected to the correct sockets.

11.3 DC voltage mode ("V=")

Proceed as follows to measure DC voltages:

Turn the multimeter on and select "V-mode." "and-V" will appear on the display. For lower voltages up to max. 600 mV, select the "mV" measurement function.

11.5 Measuring AC and DC voltage "V AC+DC"

You can measure mixed voltages as follows:

Turn the multimeter on and select "V AC+DC" mode. Press the "SELECT" button twice to switch to AC+DC mode. "and "V" will appear on the display.
Perform the connection and measurement as described under "Measuring AC voltage". The display shows the complete mixed voltage (AC+DC).

11.6 LoZ voltage mode

LoZ mode allows you to measure DC and AC voltages with a low impedance (approx. 400 kΩ). In this mode, the multimeter lowers the internal resistance to prevent “phantom” voltage readings. As a result, the circuit is more heavily loaded than in the standard measurement mode.

To enable LoZ mode, press the "LoZ" button when taking a voltage measurement. The impedance will be reduced until you release the button. In the LoZ mode, a beep sounds and the display (B) is indicated.

The “Loz” symbol (C9) appears on the display.

The LoZ mode can only be used for circuits with a voltage of up to 1000 V. The duration of the LoZ measurement must be limited to a maximum of 3 s.

After using the LoZ mode, leave the multimeter for 1 minute before using it again.

11.7 Taking current measurements

Never exceed the maximum permitted input values. Never touch circuits or parts of circuits when they may contain voltages greater than 33 V/ACrms or 70 V/DC! Danger to life!

The voltage in the measured circuit must not exceed 1000 V.

Measurements greater than 10 A must only be made for a maximum of 10 seconds in 10-minute intervals.

Always start the current measurement using the largest measurement range, and then switch to a smaller range if necessary. Always disconnect the circuit before connecting the multimeter and changing the measurement range. All current measurement ranges are protected against overload.

Do not measure any currents above 10 A in the A range or currents above 600 mA in the mA/ A range, as this will trigger the fuses.

Current measurements should be made as quickly as possible. Avoid taking measurements for prolonged periods.

An optical and acoustic alarm is triggered when the measurement range is exceeded.

Proceed as follows to measure direct currents (A ---):

Switch the multimeter on and select "10A, mA, or μA" mode.

The table shows the different measurement modes and the corresponding measurement ranges. Select the desired measurement range and corresponding measurement sockets.

11.9 Measuring resistance

Make sure that all objects that you wish to measure (including circuit components, circuits and component parts) are disconnected and discharged.

Follow the steps below to measure the resistance:

Turn on the multimeter and select the “Ω” measurement mode.
Insert the red test lead into the measurement socket, the black test lead into the COM measurement socket.
Check the test leads for continuity by connecting both test probes to one another. The multimeter should then show a resistance value of approx 0–0.5 Ω (inherent resistance of the test leads).
For low-impedance measurements of <600 Ω, press the F3 "REL" button when the measuring probes are short-circuited. This ensures that

the inherent resistance of the test leads does not affect the resistance measurement. The display should show 0 Ω.
