○Power switch and function switch
Turn this switch to turn on and off the power and to select the functions of V, / -/ , +, A , mA, A.
○Range hold button
Pressing this button once sets the manual mode and the range is fixed. ("AUTO" on the display disappears)
Once the manual mode is set, the range moves each time this button is pressed. Checking the unit on the display and the place of the decimal point, select a desired range. To return to the auto mode, keep pressing this button until "AUTO" on the display appears.
○Data hold button
When this button is pressed, the data display at that time continues ("DH" lights on the display). When the measuring input changes, the display will not change.
When this button is pressed again, the hold status is canceled you can return to the measuring status. ("DH" on the display disappears.)
○Select button
When this button is pressed ( ), the each modes change as follows.
| ACV/Hz/Duty | ACV → Hz → Duty → ACV |
| Ω /→/•/ : | Ω → → → • → +€ → Ω |
| 600 · 6000 μA | |
| 60 · 600 mA | DCA → ACA → DCA |
| 6 · 15 A |
- When the function switch is switched, the range switches to the auto range of the mode specified on the left end.

WARNING
Do not change over the function switch with a voltage applied to the measuring terminals.
○Auto power save
This instrument incorporates the auto power save function that turns off the display in about 16 minutes to save the battery draining. When the rotary switch or a switch button is not controlled while this instrument is ON, the warning buzzer beeps in about 15 minutes and then the instrument power and display are turned off automatically in 1 minute after. Every time a switch button is pressed or the function switch is switched during measurement, the time until the auto power save function is activated is extended by about 16 minutes.
To recover from the auto power save mode where the display is off, press one of the three switch buttons.
This function can be disabled by holding the SELECT button while turning the function switch to switch the power ON.
When this function is disabled, the Ⓧ indicator on the display is extinguished.
As a small amount of the battery power drains even when the instrument is turned OFF by the auto power save function, be sure to set the rotary switch to OFF when not using the instrument.
○OVER LOAD (O.L) indication
In case of excess input to this device, the indicator displays O.L. If O.L is displayed during the voltage function, stop the input immediately. When a DC 1000 V or higher voltage is input while the DCV function is selected or when an AC 750 V or higher voltage is input while the ACV, Hz or Duty function is selected, the instrument generates warning with intermittent buzzer beeps and the flashing LED.

●The bar graph is not displayed with the capacitor measurement. The measurement is possible only with the auto range.
5-10 Current Measurement ( A, mA, A)

WARNING
(Applicable to both sections 5-10-1 and 5-10-2)
- Never apply voltage to the input terminals.
![Power Power Load Load [×] Wrong connection Right connection](/content/2026/05/956494/images/b95a95cffd57d533063127978d1fd4d787b7dbdc2a5528ccbb30d3da331c8cc3.jpg)

| DC/AC mA | 600.0 mA | 60.00 mA, 600.0 mA |

Example of DC 60-600 mA range measurement
Note:
As this instrument employs the mean value method for the AC detection, measurements become erroneous when the input waveform is other than a sine wave (the frequency range is 45 to 500 Hz).
● The current measured with this method decreases by the amount that the internal resistance of the current range is inserted in series. The effect of this phenomenon is particularly noticeable when measuring the current of a low-resistance circuit.
The resistance value of the A range is about 50 while that of the mA range is about 0.5 .
- If the displayed value hardly changes when the input signal is applied or becomes much lower than expected, the measurement terminals or function switch are set erroneously or the fuse ( 6.3 x 32 mm size, 0.4 A/1000 V) may be blown. Please check them.
● The A/mA switching is performed with the rotary switch.
● The DC/AC switching is performed with the SELECT button.
5-10-2 DC/AC current (DC/AC A)

WARNING
- Never apply voltage to the input terminals.
- The current measurement is accompanied with heat generation. When measuring current of 6 A or more, complete each measurement within 10 seconds and leave an interval of 5 minutes or more between measurements.
- Perform measurement with the leads kept straight to prevent overheat.
| Function | Maximum rated input | Ranges |
| DC/AC A | 15 A | 6.000 A, 15.00 A |

Example of DC 6-15 A range measurement
Note:
- As this instrument employs the mean value method for the AC detection, measurements become erroneous when the input waveform is other than a sine wave (the frequency range is 45 to 500 Hz).
- If the displayed value hardly changes when the input signal is applied or becomes much lower than expected, the measurement terminals or function switch are set erroneously or the fuse ( 10 x 38 mm size, 16 A/1000 V) may be blown. Please check them.
● Continuous measurement is permissible for current below 6 A. (When measuring 6 A or higher current, complete each measurement within 10 seconds and leave an interval of 5 minutes or more between measurements.
- In case of measurements taking a long period, use the optional clamp probe.
● The DC/AC switching is performed with the SELECT button.
