Operations

To avoid false reading, replace the battery if the battery low power symbol appears. Also pay special attention to the warning sign beside the test lead jack, indicating that the tested voltage or current must not exceed the values listed on the device.

1. AC/DC voltage measurement (see Figure 2)
   1.Switch the dial to “V~” position.
   2. Insert the black test lead into the COM jack, the red test lead into the “VΩmA” jack. Connect test leads with the charge in parallel. ⚠ Notes:
   Do not measure voltage over 250Vrms, or it may expose users to electric shock and damage the device. If the range of the voltage to be measured is unknown, select the maximum range and reduce it accordingly.
   Please pay extra attention when measuring high voltage in order to avoid electric shock.
   Before using the device, it is suggested to measure a known voltage for verification.

2. Resistance measurement (see figure 2)
   1. Switch the dial to “Ω” position.
   2. Insert the black test lead into the COM jack, the red test lead into the “VΩmA” jack. Connect test leads with the resistor in parallel.
   ⚠ Notes:
   Before measuring resistance, switch off the power supply of the circuit, and fully discharge all capacitors.
   If the resistance when probes are shorted is more than 0.5Ω, please check if test leads are loosened or damaged.
   If the resistor is open or over the range, the “OL” symbol will be displayed on the screen.
   When measuring low resistance, the test leads will produce 0.1Ω-0.2Ω measurement error. To obtain accurate measurement, the measured value should subtract the value displayed when two test leads are shorted.
   When measuring high resistance above 1 MΩ, it is normal to take a few seconds to steady the readings. In order to quickly obtain steady data, use short test wires to measure high resistance.

3. Continuity measurement (see Figure 2)
   1. Switch the dial to “ ” position.
   2. Insert the black test lead into the COM jack, the red test lead into the “VΩmA” jack. Connect test leads with the points to be tested in parallel.
   3. If measured points resistance >51Ω, circuit is in open status.
   If measured points resistance ≤10Ω, circuit is in good conduction status, buzzer will go off.
   ⚠ Notes:
   Before measuring continuity, switch off the power supply of the circuit, and fully discharge all capacitors.

4. Diode measurement (see Figure 2)
   1. Switch the dial to “ ” position.
   2. Insert the black test lead into the COM jack, the red test lead into the “VΩmA” jack. Connect test leads with the diode in parallel.
   3. “OL” symbol appears when the diode is open or polarity is reversed.
   For silicon PN junction, normal value: 500 ~ 800mV (0.5 – 0.8V).
   ⚠ Notes:
   Before measuring PN junction, switch off the power supply to the circuit, and fully discharge all capacitors.

5. DC measurement (see Figure 3)
   1. Switch the dial to DC test.
   2. Insert the black test lead into the COM jack, the red test lead into the “VΩmA” jack. Connect test leads with the tested circuit in series. ⚠ Notes:
   Before measuring, switch off the power supply of the circuit and carefully check the input terminal and range position.
   If the range of the measured current is unknown, select the maximum range and then reduce accordingly.
   Please replace the fuse with one of the same type.
   10A jack: Fuse 10A/250V Φ5x20mm
   VΩmA jack: Fuse 0,2A/250V Φ5x20mm
   When measuring, please do not connect the test leads with any circuit in parallel. Otherwise there is a risk of damage to the device and human body.
   If the tested current is over 10A, each measurement time should be less than 10 seconds and the next test should be after 15 minutes.

6. NCV measurement (see Figure 4)1. Switch the dial to NCV position.
   2. Place the device near the measured object. “ – ” symbol indicates the intensity of the electric field. More “ – “ and the higher the buzzer frequency, the higher the electric field intensity.
   3. Intensity of electric field.

7. Additional features
   The device enters measurement status in 2 seconds after the start-up.
   The device automatically shuts down if there is no operation for 15 minutes.
   You can turn on the device by pressing any key.
   To disable auto shutdown, switch the dial to OFF position, long press HOLD key and turn on the device.
   When pressing any key or switching the dial, the buzzer will beep once.
