Bargraph display
The 40 segment bargraph display shown below is a graphical interpretation of the
measurement. It is displayed under the display digits on the LCD.
The bars in the bargraph indicate a presence of an electronic signal. The more bars
showing, the higher the signal. The digits below the graph help the user see how many
bars are showing. If 40 segments are showing, the bars will reach the ‘40’ mark, if 20 bars
are showing the bars will reach the ‘20’ mark.
The bargraph is to be interpreted based on the range the meter is in while the
measurement is being made. If the bargraph shows 40 segments lit, then the signal is at
the highest end of the meter’s present range.

Operation
AC Current Measurements
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from the meter before
making current measurements.
1. Set the Function switch to the 4, 40, 100, or 400A AC range.
2. Press the Trigger to open the clamp jaw.
3. Clamp onto a single conductor (fully enclosing it). Do not allow a gap between the two
halves of the jaw.
4. Read the ACA value on the LCD.
DC Current Measurements
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from the meter before
making current measurements.
1. Set the Function switch to the 40 or 400A DC range.
2. Press the DCA zero key to null the meter display.
3. Press the Trigger to open the current sense Jaw.
4. Fully enclose a single conductor to be measured. Do not allow a gap between the two
halves of the jaw.
5. Read the DCA value on the LCD.
Frequency Measurements
1. Ensure that at least 0.1A AC is detectable before measuring Frequency.
2. Set the Function switch to the Hz position.
3. Press the Trigger to open the jaw and fully enclose one conductor.
4. Read the Frequency measurement on the LCD in Hz.
MIN, MAX Function
Press the MIN/MAX key to display ONLY the highest (MAX) and the lowest (MIN)
readings. Press the MIN/MAX key once to view the minimum reading, press it again to
view the maximum reading. Note that the displayed readings will only change when a
measurement is taken higher than the previous MAX or lower than the previous MIN
readings. The HOLD display icon (along with the MIN or MAX icon) will appear on the LCD
in MIN/MAX mode. Pressing the MIN/MAX key a 3rd time returns the meter to normal
operation.
Data Hold
To freeze the displayed reading on the LCD, press the Data Hold key (the HOLD icon will
appear on the display). To release the Data Hold function and return the meter to normal
operation, press the Data Hold key again (the HOLD icon will switch off).
Zero button for Relative Measurements
1. Press the ZERO key and the present measurement will zero.
2. All subsequent measurements are displayed with respect to the zeroed reading. For
example, if a 20A reading is zeroed and a 30A reading is subsequently measured, the
LCD will display 10A.
3. To return to normal operation, press and hold the ZERO key for 2 seconds.
4. Note that Relative mode is not available if the MIN/MAX mode is enabled.
