NOTE:
If you manually change the measurement range after
entering the Data Hold modes, the Meter exits this mode.
2. To exit the manual ranging mode, press and hold down
RANGE key for two seconds. The Meter returns to the
autorange mode and AUTO is displayed.
3.1.3 Battery Saver
• The Meter enters the "sleep mode" and blanks the
display if the Meter is on but not used for 30 minutes.
• Press the HOLD key or rotate the rotary switch to wake
the meter up.
• To disable the Sleep mode, hold down the yellow key
while turning the meter on.
3.1.4 Relative measurement mode
The Meter will display relative measurement in all
functions except frequency.
To enter and exit the relative measurement mode:
1. With the Meter in the desired function, touch the test
leads to the circuit on which you want future
measurement to be based.
2. Press REL key to store the measured value and
activate the relative measurement mode. The
difference between the reference value and
subsequent reading is displayed.
3. Press REL key for more than 2 seconds to return the
Meter to normal operation.
3.2 Measurement Functions
3.2.1 AC and DC Voltage measurement
To avoid electrical shock and/or damage to the
instrument, do not attempt to take any voltage
measurement that might exceeds 1000Vdc or
1000Vac rms.
To avoid electrical shock and/or damage to the
instrument, do not apply more than 1000Vdc or
1000Vac rms between the common terminal and
the earth ground.
Warning
Voltage is the difference in electrical potential between
two points. The polarity of ac (alternating current) voltage
varies over time; the polarity of dc (direct current) voltage
is constant.
The Meter's voltage ranges are 400.0mV, 4.000V, 40.00V,
400.0V and 1000V. (AC 400.0mV range only exists in
manual ranging mode).
To measure ac or dc voltage (set up and connect the
Meter as shown in Figure 2):
1. Set rotary switch to the DCV, ACV or DCmV range.
2. Connect the black and red test leads to the COM and
V terminals respectively.
3. Connect the test leads to the circuit being measured
4. Read the displayed value. The polarity of red test lead
connection will be indicated when making a DCV
measurement.
