DIGITAL MULTIMETER
OPERATOR’S MANUAL
1. Overview
The multimeter is characterized at slim size, portable, stable performance and anti-dropping
capacity. Using 6000 counts digit LCD monitor with character 25mm high, they offer clear readings.
With overall circuitry design centering on large-scale IC A/D converters in conjunction and
over-load protection circuit, the meters give excellent performance and exquisite making as a
handy utility instrument.
The meters can be used to measure DC & AC voltage, DC & AC current, resistance, capacitor,
frequency, duty cycle, temperature, battery test, Non Contact AC Voltage (NCV) detection,
positive diode voltage fall and audible continuity.
2. Panel Layout
1. Test lead fixture: Fix the test lead.
2. CDS sensor: The CDS sensor can reaction to the ambient brightness range, then automatically
control the LCD backlight to lighten or go out.
3. NCV detection area: Non Contact AC Voltage (NCV) detection area.
4. NCV red light: Non Contact AC Voltage (NCV) detection red light.
5. NCV green light: Non Contact AC Voltage (NCV) detection green light.
6. LCD display: 6000 counts digit, full function symbol display.
7. SELECT key: This key work on the " " range, press the key to choose resistance,
diode, continuity or capacitance test, on the voltage or current range, change to DC or AC, on the
range, change to or test; If press and hold SELECT key to power on, “Auto Power
Off function will be disabled.
8. RANGE Key: Press the RANGE key, the meter enters manual range mode, press it more than
2 seconds again, return to auto mode.
9. HOLD key: Press the HOLD key to lock display value, and the DH sign will appear on the
display, press it again to exit.
10. REL Key: Press the REL key, the meter enters relative measuring mode, REL is displayed
on the LCD and the present reading becomes the reference value and displayed on the display.
Relative measurement REL=measurement value-Reference value.
11. Hz/% Key: On “ACV/ACA” or “Hz” range, press the Hz/% key, you can choose the
Frequency or Duty Cycle measurement.
12. Rotary Switch: Use this switch to select functions and ranges.
13. COM: COM and Temperature “- InputJack 14. 10A:10AInput Jack
15. VΩmA: V/μAmA/Hz/BATT/ and Temperature “+ InputJack

3. Safety Information
3-1 The meter is designed according to IEC-1010 concerning electronic measuring instruments
with an over-voltage category 600V (CAT ) and pollution 2.
3-2 Follow all safety and operating instructions to ensure that the meter is used safely and is kept
in good operating condition.
3-3 safety symbols:
Important safety information, refer to the operating manual.
Dangerous voltage may be presence.
Double insulation (protection Class II)
4. Special Cautions for Operation
4-1 The meters can be safe only according to standard procedures when used in conjunctions
with the supplied test leads. To replace damaged test leads with only the same model or same
electric specifications.
4-2 To avid risk of electric shock, do not use the meters before the cover is in place.
4-3 The range switch should be right position for the testing.
4-4 To avoid electric shock and damaging the instruments, the input signals are forbidden to
exceed the specified limits.
4-5 When measuring TV set or switched power, attention should be paid to the possible pulses
that may bring destruction to the circuit.
4-6 Range switch position is forbidden to be changed at random during measurement.
4-7 Take caution against shock in the course of measuring voltage higher than DC 60V & AC 30V.
4-8 Protection fuse should be replaced only with same type and same specification.
4-9 After operation is finished, set function switch at OFF to save battery power.
4-10 If the meter is without usage for long time, take out battery to avoid damage by battery
leakage.
