3. Connect the test leads across the load to be measured.
4. Read the reading on the display.
Note:
x If the resistance is more than 1 M, it may take several seconds for the reading stabilize. It is
normal for high resistance measurements.
x If the input terminals are in open circuit state, over range indicator “OL” will be displayed on the
display.
x Before measuring in=circuit resistance, disconnect all power to the circuit and discharge all
capacitors thoroughly.
Diode Test
1. Connect the black test lead to the “COM” jack and the red test Iead to the
(The
red test lead is positive)
2, Set the function switch to
" position, Press the until the symbol
appears on the display.
3. Connect the red test lead to the anode of the diode to be tested and the black test lead to the
cathode of the diode.
4. Read the approximate forward voltage drop of the diode on the display.
Continuity Test
1. Connect the black test lead to the "COM" jack and the red test lead to the
(The
red test lead is positive)
2. Set the function switch to position. Press the
until the symbol
appears on the display.
3. Connect the test leads across the circuit to be tested.
4. If the resistance is less than about 30, the built-in buzzer will sound.
Note:
Disconnect circuit power and discharge all capacitors thoroughly before test.
Automatic Power-off
If the meter is not used and stays in a range position for about 15 minutes, it will turn off automatically
and go into Sleep mode.
To arouse the meter from Sleep, press the
MAINTENANCE
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
Dirt or moisture in the terminals can affect readings.
To clean the terminals, follow the below steps:
1. Turn the meter off, remove ell test leads.
2. Shake out any dirt that may be in the terminals.
3. Soak a new swab with alcohol. Work the swab around in each terminal.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
When the low battery indicator
appears on the display. The batteries are low and should be
replaced immediately.
To replace the batteries, remove the screw on the battery cover, replace the exhausted batteries with
new batteries of the same type.
Reinstall the battery cover and the screw.
Warning:
Remove the test leads from the meter and remove the jaws from the conductor under test before
opening the case or the battery cover.
