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.
• Only replace the blown fuse with the proper rating as specified in this manual.
• Do not attempt a current measurement when the open voltage is above the fuse protection rating. Suspected open voltage can be checked with voltage function.
• Never attempt a voltage measurement with the test lead inserted into the A input terminal.
• Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or capacitance.

• Dial the switch and press the Function button to select the measuring function.

CAUTION
This function is only available with the dedicated PV test probe. Always select the correct DC / AC mode to perform high-voltage measurements. 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.

Measuring Capacitance / Diode

Dial the switch and press the Function button to select the measuring function.

Measuring Continuity / Resistance

• Dial the switch and press the Function button to select the measuring function.

Measuring Temperature °C / °F

Warning

The Volt Seek LED indicates the electric field. If the Volt Seek LED is not on, the voltage could still be present.

Using the Function

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

Range Button

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 the Hold button to pause the recording.

Smart Hold

The meter will beep continuously and the display will flash if the measured signal is larger than the display reading by 50 counts. (However, it can not detect across the AC and DC Voltage / Current).

Relative

• Press the Relative button to enable/disenable this function.

Backlight

• Press the HOLD button over 2 sec to turn on/off Backlight.

Auto Power Off

• Wakeup the meter by dialing the switch or pressing any button.

Time Setting of Auto Power Off

Press the function button and turn the meter on. Then press the function button to select the time. The time can be 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, and disabled (OFF).

High-Frequency Rejection (HFR)
The High-Frequency Rejection mode equips a low pass filter in the AC measurements. The cut-off frequency (-3dB point) of the low pass filter is 800Hz.

The hazardous voltage may be present even if the LCD reading is very low in HFR mode. Verify the voltage again without HFR mode.

Testing LCD Monitor

• To turn on the meter after keeping HOLD button down

Function of LOG Button

• Pressing button while powering up to select the mode – Data Logger mode, Manual Saving mode, and Clear memory.

Data Logger

The meter can store up to 4000 data in memory.

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 Vdc. 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 internal white insulation layer is exposed.
