SAFETY
Review the following safety precautions to avoid injury and prevent damage to this product or any
products connected to it. To avoid potential hazards, use the product only as specified.
CAUTION.
These statements identify conditions or practices that could result in damage to the equipment or other
property.
WARNING.
These statements identify conditions or practices that could result in personal injury or loss of life.
Specific precautions:
Do not operate without covers. To avoid personal injury, do not apply any voltage or current to the
product without the covers in place.
Electric overload. Never apply a voltage to a connector on the product that is outside the range specified
for that connector.
Avoid electric shock. To avoid injury or loss of life, do not connect or disconnect probes or test leads
while they are connected to a voltage source.
Do not operate in wet/damp conditions. To avoid electric shock, do not operate this product in wet or
damp conditions.
Indicator Functions:
• Hi-V: In ACV, DCV, Resistance, and Continuity/Diode test, the end user will get an audible
warning and the Hi-V light will blink if there is Voltage Greater that 30V present at the input
terminals.
o In addition to the LED and audible beep, the 61-702 and 61-704 has a tactile vibration
when voltage is present.
• NCV: When the NCV button is pressed, the analog to digital circuit is turned off and the NCV
circuit is activated. Sensing for the NCV is at the tip of the Clamp Jaw or by the Red Test Lead in
the red (+) input terminal. Follow the operation instructions giving in the operator’s manual for
proper use of this function. The NCV function is on Ideal Models 61-701,61-702, and 61-704.
• CP: When the 60Hz AC power is clean, with less than 5% Total Harmonics Distortion (THD) on
AC voltage, the green CP light will be energized. If there is greater that 5% THD on the line, the
green CP light will be de-energized.
