Always connect the black test lead to the COM jack. Connect the red test lead to the appropriate input jack based on the measurement type.
Turn the rotary switch to V~ (AC Voltage) sau V- (Volum CCtage). Connect the test leads in parallel with the circuit or component. The display will show the voltagcitirea.
Turn the rotary switch to Ω. Ensure the circuit is de-energized before measuring resistance. Connect the test leads across the component. The display will show the resistance in Ohms (Ω), kilo-ohms (kΩ), or mega-ohms (MΩ).
Turn the rotary switch to A~ (AC Current) or A- (DC Current). Important: Disconnect power to the circuit. Connect the multimeter in series with the circuit. Reapply power. The display will show the current reading. Be mindful of the maximum current rating for each input jack (mAµA vs. A).
Turn the rotary switch to the capacitance symbol (typically a capacitor icon). Ensure the capacitor is fully discharged before connecting the test leads. Connect the leads across the capacitor. The display will show the capacitance in Farads (F), microfarads (µF), or nanofarads (nF).
Turn the rotary switch to Temp. Connect the temperature probe (thermocouple) to the VΩHzTemp and COM jacks, observing polarity. Place the probe tip on or near the object whose temperature is to be measured. The display will show the temperature in Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F).
Ștergeți carcasa cu reclamăamp o lavetă și un detergent blând. Nu utilizați substanțe abrazive sau solvenți. Nu lăsați terminalele de intrare să fie curățate de murdărie și umezeală.
When the battery indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries as described in the "Battery Installation" section under Setup. Prompt battery replacement ensures accurate readings and proper operation.
If the current measurement function fails, the fuse may need replacement. Refer to the specifications for the correct fuse type and rating. Fuse replacement should only be performed by qualified personnel. Ensure the multimeter is disconnected from all circuits and turned off before opening the case.
