GETTING TO KNOW YOUR MULTIMETER
- Function Selector.
- Power Switch.
- L.C.D. Screen.
- Probes.
- V, , mA (Voltage, Resistance, Amperage) Jack Socket.
- Common Earth Jack Socket.
UNPACKING: After removing the packing material, make sure the product is
in perfect condition and that there are no visible damaged parts. If in doubt,
do not use the digital multimeter and contact the dealer from whom it was
purchased.
The packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.), must be disposed of
in an appropriate refuse collection container. These materials must not be
left within the reach of children as they are potential sources of danger.

– OTHER METER MARKINGS
ASSEMBLY
Remove the rubber case. Turn the meter over and remove the screws holding the
housing together. Carefully part the front and back housing of the meter. Do
not touch any of the internal components. Insert the appropriate battery
taking note of the polarity. Close the housing (do not force) and resecure.
The internal fuse can be replaced in the same manner.
To ensure an accurate reading, ensure the test probe are fully engaged.
OPERATION AND USE
WARNINGS: Each time before you use this analyser, inspect the test leads,
connectors and probes for damage, e.g. cracks or breaks in the insulation. Any
defective leads should be replaced immediately. If the value to be measured is
not known, set the selector switch to the highest range and reduce until a
satisfactory reading is obtained.
VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT:
- Connect the red test lead to the ‘V/ /mA’ jack socket and the black lead to the ‘com’ jack socket Ensure the leads are correctly plugged in.
- Position the selector switch to the desired voltage range and switch the meter ‘ON’.
- Connect the test leads to the circuit to be measured.
- Turn on the power to the circuit to be measured, the voltage value should appear on the digital display along with the voltage polarity (if reversed only).
CURRENT MEASUREMENT (Fig.1.):
- Connect the red test lead to the ‘V/ /mA’ jack socket and the black lead to the ‘com’ jack socket (max 10A).
- Position the selector switch to the desired amp range and switch the meter ‘ON’.
- Open the circuit to be measured, and connect the test leads in series to bridge the gap.
- Turn on the power to the circuit to be measured, the ‘current’ value should appear on the digital display.
RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT:
WARNING: If the resistance to be measured is part of a circuit, turn off and disconnect the power and discharge all capacitors before measurement
- Connect the red test lead to the ‘V/ /mA’ jack socket and the black lead to the ‘com’ jack socket.
- Position the selector switch to the desired ohm range and switch the meter ‘ON’.
- Connect the test leads to the circuit to be measured.
- The resistance value should now appear on the digital display.
MAINTENANCE
The fuse rarely needs replacing, and almost always a blown fuse is the result of an operator error.
WARNING: If the resistance to be measured is part of a circuit, turn off
and disconnect the power and discharge all capacitors before measurement
If the meter battery is in need of replacement (see Assembly section) the ’
symbol will appear ‘ on the display.
