Digital Multi Meter DC & AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT 1. Connect red test lead to “VΩmA” jack, black lead to “COM” jack. 2. Set RANGE switch to desired VOLTAGE position, if the voltage to be measured is not known beforehand, set switch to the highest range and reduce it until satisfactory reading is obtained. 3. Connect test leads to device or circuit being measured. 4. Turn on power of the device or circuit being measured voltage value will appear on Digital Display along with the voltage polarity.
Digital Multi Tester DC CURRENT MEASUREMENT 1. Red lead to “VΩmA”. Black lead to “COM” (for measurements between 200mA and 5A connect red lead to “5A” jack with fully depressed.) Set RANGE switch to desired DCA position. 3. Open the circuit to be measured, and connect test leads in SERIES with the load in with current is to measure. 4. Read current value on Digital Display. 5. Additionally, “5A” function is designed for intermittent use only. Maximum contact time of the test leads with the circuit is 10 seconds, with a minimum intermission time of 15 minutes between tests.
RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT 1. Red lead to “VΩmA”. Black lead to “COM”. 2. Set RANGE switch to desired Ω position. 3. If the resistance being measured is connected to a circuit, turn off power and discharge all capacitors before measurement. 4. Connect test leads to circuit being measured. 5. Read resistance value on Digital Display.
DIODE MEASUREMENT 1. Red lead to “VΩmA”, Black lead to “COM”. 2. Set RANGE switch to “ ” position. 3. Connect the red test lead to the anode of the diode to be measured and black test lead to cathode. 4. The forward voltage drop in mV will be displayed. If the diode is reversed, figure “1” will be shown.
TRANSISTOR hFE MEASUREMENT 1. Set RANGE switch to the hFE position. 2. Determine whether the transistor is PNP of NPN type and locate the Emitter, Base and Collector leads. Insert the leads into the correct holes of the hFE Socket. 3. The meter will display the approximate hFE value at the condition of base current 10μA and VCE2.8V.
AUDIBLE CONTINUITY TEST 1. Red lead to “VΩmA”, Black lead to “COM”. 2. RANGE switch to “ ” position. 3. Connect test leads to two points of circuit to be tested. If the resistance is lower then 30Ω±20Ω, the buzzer will sound.
BATTERY AND FUSE REPLACEMENT Fuses rarely need replacement. They usually blow when the tester is used incorrectly. If “ ” appears in on the display, it indicates that the battery should be replaced. To replace battery & fuse (F500mA/250V for mA terminal and F5A/250V for 5A terminal) remove the 2 screws in the back of the case, simply remove the old fuse or battery, and replace with a new one. Be careful to observe the correct polarity.
