3.2.1 TRMS and zero Input characteristics

1. As for the measurement of non-sinusoidal signals, the TRMS method has less error than the traditional average value response method.
2. True RMS meter can accurately measure the non-sinusoidal wave signal, but if it’s on the AC function mode or in the condition of no input signal measured(For example, in the input terminal short circuit or in the ac voltage mode), clamp table may show a readout of between 1 to 50. These deviation readings are normal. They do not influence the accuracy of the multimeter which is used for testing alternating current in the specified measuring range.
3. True RMS requires meter input signal to reach a certain level for being measured. Therefore, the measuring range of AC voltage and current is specified between 2 % – 100 % of the full measuring range.
4. In order to guarantee the accuracy of AC measurement,the input signal must be the following: – AC voltage: more than 13mV

4. Operation guidance

4.1 Reading-holding

1. In the process of measurement, if need reading-holding, users can press “HOLD” key,which LCD screen will show the display value that has been locked.
2. Press the HOLD”key again, users can remove the reading-holding mode.

4.2 Flashlight

4.3 Function switch

1. In the condition of AC mode,if press “SELECT/V.F.C” key for over 2 seconds,meter screen will switch to V.F.C mode. Meanwhile,the meter screen will display V.F.C prompt which can measure the variable frequency voltage reliably.If again press “SELECT/V.F.C” for over 2 seconds, the meter screen will show “Exit V.F.C measurement mode” and the prompt from V.F.C measurement mode will be cancel.
2. When testing DC or AC voltage mV,pressing”SELECTI.F.C”button can switch to DC voltage mV or AC voltage mV mode.
3. When testing current, pressing “SELECT/V.F.C”button can switch to test DC current or AC current mode.
4. When test resistance,diode and line-on/off, pressing “SELECT/V.F.C” button can switch to the function of resistance,diode and Continuity repeatedly.

4.5 Backlight

4.6 Automatic shutdown

1. If there is no any operation in any 15 minutes after power-on, the meter will go into sleeping mode and turn the power off automatically so as to save power.
2. After automatic shutdown, press any key, the meter will restart working.
3. When turn the meter power on,pressing”SELECT/V.F.C” button, the meter with a buzzer can continuously make a sound for five times which indicates automatic shutdown function will be canceled. And after power-off, then restart power-on, the automatic power-off function will work again.

4.7 NCV (Non-contact voltage detection)

1. First, the meter rotary switch have to turn to the NCV mode. Second, then put the top of meter close to the conductor. Third, when test voltage which is above 110 Vac (RMS),and the meter is close to the conductor, the induction voltage of meter with an alarm buzzer will make beep.

Notice:

1. Even if there is no sign for the meter, the voltage may still exist, Don’t rely on non-contact voltage detector to determine whether the wire can generate voltage or not. The detection operation may be influenced by the electrical outlet design, insulation thickness and other different factors.
2. When the input terminals of the meter input voltage or the interference sources of the external environment influence the meter(such as flashlight, motor and so forth), it may trigger non-contact voltage detection by a mistake because of the existence of induction voltage. After that, the meter will alarm and flash.

Or if the current tested is between 600mA and 10A, connecting the orange test lead with the 10A input socket.
2. Turning the power of the circuit tested off, connecting the black test lead with one end of the circuit-offits voltage is higher than normal condition) and connecting the orange test lead with one end of the circuit-off(its voltage is higher than normal condition), then turning the power of the circuit tested on, users can see the readings from the meter screen.If display “OL”,this means the input value exceeds the measuring range selected. The rotating switch is supposed to be much higher testing range.
