OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Risk of electrocution. High-voltage circuits, both AC and DC, are very dangerous and

should be measured with great care.

1. ALWAYS turn the function switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use.

2. If OL appears in the display, the value exceeds the range you have selected. Change to a

higher range.

NOTE: On some low AC and DC voltage ranges, with the test leads not connected to a device, the

display may show a random, changing reading. This is normal and is caused by the high-input

sensitivity. The reading will stabilize and give a proper measurement when connected to a circuit.

RANGE BUTTON

When the meter is first turned on, it automatically goes into autoranging mode. To manually select

the range to be tested perform the following.

1. Press RANGE button. The AUTO display will turn off.

2. Press RANGE button to step through the available ranges.

3. Press and hold the RANGE button for 2 seconds to exit the manual ranging mode and return to

autoranging.

NOTE: Manual ranging does not apply for Capacitance, Frequency, Diode, Continuity and Duty

Cycle.

DATA HOLD BUTTON

Data hold allows the meter to “freeze” a measurement in the display.

1. Press DATA HOLD button to “freeze” the reading on the LCD. The indicator “HOLD” will appear

on the display.

2. Press DATA HOLD button to return to normal operation

RELATIVE BUTTON

The relative measurement feature allows you to make measurements relative to a stored reference

value. A reference voltage, current, etc. can be stored and measurements made in comparison to that

value. The displayed value is the difference between the reference value and the measured value.

1. Perform any measurement as described in operating instructions.

2. Press the RELATIVE button to store the reading in the display and the REL indicator will

appear on the display.

3. The display will now indicate the difference between the stored value and measured value.

4. Press the RELATIVE button to return to normal operation.

NON-CONTACT AC VOLTAGE DETECTOR

WARNING: Always test the NCV function on a know live circuit before use

1. Turn the rotary switch to any measurement position

2. Hold the top of the meter very close to the voltage source as shown.

3. If voltage is present, the LED above the display will glowNOTE: The detector

is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity or other sources of energy

may randomly trip the sensor. This is normal operation.

AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS

WARNING: Risk of Electrocution. The probe tips may not be long enough to contact the live parts

inside some 240V outlets for appliances because the contacts are recessed deep in the outlets. As

a result, the reading may show 0 volts when the outlet actually has voltage on it. Make sure the

probe tips are touching the metal contacts inside the outlet before assuming that no voltage is

present.

CAUTION: Do not measure AC voltages if a motor on the circuit is being switched ON or OFF.

Large voltage surges may occur that can damage the meter.

1. Set the function switch to the VAC position.

2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative COM jack. Insert the

red test lead banana plug into the positive Vjack.

3. Touch the black test probe tip to the neutral side of the circuit.

4. Touch the red test probe tip to the “hot” side of circuit.

5. Read the voltage in the display.
