**** Safety Information

Understand and follow operating instructions carefully. Use the meter only as.

WARNING

• If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
• Always use proper terminals, switch position, and range for measurements.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this product around explosive gas or in damp locations.
• Verify the Meter operation by measuring a known voltage. If in doubt, have the Meter serviced.
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on Meter, between terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
• To avoid false readings that can lead to electric shock and injury, replace the battery as soon as low battery indicator blinks.
• Avoid working alone so assistance can be rendered.
• Do not use the Tester if the Tester is not operating properly or if it is wet.
• Individual protective device must be used if hazardous live parts in the installation where the measurement is to be carried out could be accessible.
• Disconnect the test leads from the test points before changing the position of the function rotary switch.
• Never connect a source of voltage when the function rotary switch is not in voltage position.
• When using test leads or probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards.
• Use caution with voltages above 30 Vac rms, 42 Vac peak, or 60 Vdc. These voltages pose a shock hazard.
• Remove test lead from Meter before opening the battery door or Meter case.
• DO NOT USE the test leads when the internal white insulation layer is exposed.
• DO NOT USE the test leads above maximum ratings of CAT. environment, voltage and current, that are indicated on the probe and the probe tip guard cap.
• DO NOT USE the test leads without the probe tip guard cap in CAT III and CAT IV environments.
• Probe assemblies to be used for MAINS measurements shall be RATED as appropriate for MEASUREMENT CATEGORY III or IV according to IEC 61010-031 and shall have a voltage RATING of at least the voltage of the circuit to be measured.
• Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or capacitance.
• De-energize the installation under test or wear suitable protective clothing during fitting and removal of the Flexible Current Probe.
• Do not apply around or remove from UNINSULATED HAZARDOUS LIVE conductors, which may render electric
• shock, electric burn, or arc flash.

Making Basic Measurements

Preparation and Caution Before Measurement
Observe the rules of
Warnings and
Cautions
CAUTION
When connecting the test leads to the DUT (Device Under Test) connect the common test leads before connecting the live test leads ; when removing the test leads, remove the live test leads before removing the common test leads.
Measuring Voltage
Dial the switch to select the measuring function. Measuring PV Voltage
Dial the switch and press the Function button to select AC/DC mode.
CAUTION
This function is only available with the dedicated PV test probe.
Always select correct DC / AC mode to perform high voltage measurement. This meter will flash symbol and the correct mode symbol (AC / DC) if the input voltage is different and dangerous.

Measuring Current

Dial the switch and press the Function button to select the measuring function.
Note : Torch will be on when jaw is opened.
Measuring Resistance/Continuity/Capacitance/Diode Dial the switch and press the Function button to select the measuring function.

Measuring Temperature °C / °F

Using the Function

Press the Function button to change the function on the same switch position.

Measuring Frequency

Backlight Press Function button for over 2 sec. to turn Backlight on / off.
MIN/MAX
The MAX/MIN mode records the min and max input values. When the input goes below the recorded min value or above the recorded max value, the meter records the new value. Press Hold button to pause the recording.

The MAX/MIN mode records the min and max input values. When the input goes below the recorded min value or above the recorded max value, the meter records the new value. Press Hold button to pause the recording.

ATL-PV Test Leads Instruction
Probe tip guard cap
For CAT Ill or CAT IV environments, use the test leads with the probe tip guard cap fixed firmly. Without the probe tip guard cap, the test leads can be used in
CAT Il environment ONLY.
For 1500V AC & 2000V DC measurement, This test lead can only be used in the environment that is not connected to MAINS directly.
CAUTION
Make sure that test leads are firmly connected to the V-COM terminals of the correct instrument, and the instrument have to switch to PV mode.

CAUTION

• When using test leads or probes, keep your fingers behind the finger guards.
• Use caution with voltages above 30 Vac rms, 42 Vac peak, or 60 Vidc. These voltages pose a shock hazard.
• If the test lead is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this product around explosive gas or in damp locations.
• DO NOT USE the test leads when the intemal white insulation layer is exposed.
• DO NOT USE the test leads above maximum ratings of CAT. environment, voltage and current, that are indicated on the probe and the probe tip uard cap.
• DO NOT USE the test leads without the probe tip guard cap in CAT Iil and CAT IV environments.
• DO NOT USE the test leads to measure over 1000V that is connected to MAINS directly.

Maintenance

Do not attempt to repair this test lead set. It contains no user-serviceable parts. Repair or servicing should only be performed by qualified personnel

Cleaning

Clean the test lead with a water and mild detergent. DO NOT use abrasives or solvents and DO NOT IMMERSE in liquid.
