CAT III

MEASUREMENT CAT III is applicable to test and

CAT IV

MEASUREMENT CAT IV is applicable to test and

measuring circuits connected at the source of

the building’s low-voltage mains installation.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Warning

Do not alter the Product and use only as specified, or the

protection supplied by the Product can be compromised.

• The 38XR-A Digital Multimeter is for use with fixed

equipment installations, such as, distribution panels,

feeders and short branch circuits and lighting

systems in large buildings; and for the primary supply

level, such as, an electric meter or an overhead or

underground utility service.

• Do not exceed the maximum overload limits per

function (see specifications) nor the limits marked on the

instrument itself. Never apply more than 1000V dc/750 V

ac rms between the test lead and earth ground.

• Inspect the DMM, test leads and accessories before

every use. Do not use any damaged part.

• Never ground yourself when taking measurements. Do

not touch exposed circuit elements or test probe tips.

• Do not operate the instrument in an explosive

atmosphere.

• Exercise extreme caution when: measuring voltage

>20V // current >10mA // AC power line with

inductive loads // AC power line during electrical

storms // current, when the fuse blows in a circuit

with open circuit voltage >1000 V // servicing CRT

equipment.

• Always measure current in series with the load –

NEVER ACROSS a voltage source. Check fuse first.

Never replace a fuse with one of a different rating.

• Remove test leads before opening the Battery Cover

or case.

INTRODUCTION

The 38XR-A is a true rms autoranging handheld digital

multimeter for measuring or testing the following:

• DC and AC Voltage

• DC and AC Current

• Resistance

• Frequency

• Dutycycle

• Temperature

• Capacitance

• Diodes

• Continuity

• dBm

• 4 - 20 mA Loop Current

Additional features include: MIN MAX AVG, HOLD, REL,

PEAK±, Range Lock, RS-232 IR communication, and Backlight.

MAKING MEASUREMENTS

Verify Instrument Operation

Before attempting to make a measurement, verify that

the instrument is operational and the battery is good. If

the instrument is not operational, have it repaired before

attempting to make a measurement.

Range Selection

In addition to autoranging the 38XR-A allows you to

manually select and lock a range by pressing the RANGE

button. RANGE appears on the display to indicate that

manual ranging is active and the range is locked. When

appropriate, each subsequent press of the range button steps

the meter to the next higher range. When the highest range

is reached the next press returns the meter to the lowest

range. To return to autoranging press and hold the RANGE

button for 2 seconds. If RANGE still shows on the display,

autoranging is not appropriate for the selected function.

Use autorange for all initial measurements. Then, when

appropriate, use the RANGE button to select and lock a range.
