    DIGITAL MULTIMETER

    WARNING
    READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS MANUAL BEFORE
    USING THE INSTRUMENT
    Failure to understand and comply with the
    WARNINGS and operating instructions can result in
    serious or fatal injuries and/or property damage.
    WARNING
    1. To avoid electrical shock hazard and/or damage of the
    instrument. Do not measure voltages that might exceed
    500V above earth ground.
    2. Before the use of instrument, inspect test leads,
    connectors and probes for cracks, breaks, or crazes in the
    insulation.

    DC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT
    1. Connect red lead to "V Ω mA" jack. Black lead to "COM"
    jack.
    2. Set RANGE swich to desired DCV position. If the voltage
    to be measured is unknown, 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.

    AC VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT
    1. Connect red lead to "V Ω mA" jack. Black lead to "COM"
    jack.
    2. Set RANGE switch to desired ACV position.
    3. Connect test leads to device or circuit being tested.
    4. Read voltage value on Digital Display.
    DC CURRENT MEASUREMENT
    1. Connect red lead to "V Ω mA" jack. Black lead to "COM"
    jack. (For measurements between 200mA and 10A, connect
    red lead to "10A" jack.)
    2. Set RANGE switch to desired DCA position.
    3. Open the circuit to be measured and connect test leads
    IN SERIES with the load in which current is to be measured.
    4. Read current value on Digital Display.

    RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT
    1. Connect red lead to "V Ω mA" jack. Black lead to "COM"
    jack.
    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. Connect red lead to "V Ω mA" jack. Black lead to "COM"
    jack.
    2. Set RANGE switch to position.
    3. Connect the red test lead to the anode of the diode to be
    measured and the black test lead to the 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 hFE position.
    2. Determine whether the transistor is NPN or PNP type and
    locate the Emitter, Base and Collector leads. Insert the leads
    into the proper holes of the hFE Socket on the front panel.
    3. The meter will display the approximate hFE value at the
    condition of base current 10 µ A and Vce 2.8V.

    BATTERY AND FUSE REPLACEMENT


    If "BAT" appears on display, it indicates that the battery
    should be replaced.
    To replace battery and fuse (500mA/250V), remove the 2
    screws in the bottom of the case. Simply remove the old
    and replace with a new one. Be careful to observe polarity.

    FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
