WarningsandPrecautions

• Do not exceed the maximum overload limits per function (see

speciﬁcations) nor the limits marked on the instrument itself.

• Inspect instrument, 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 probe tips.

• Never replace a fuse with one of a different rating. Do not

operate instrument in an explosive atmosphere.

OverloadIndication

Range overload is indicated by “1” in the display with

all other digits blanked. Select the next higher range

until a value is displayed. If overload condition still exists in the

highest range, the measured value is beyond the range of the

meter. Overload indication is normal in the OHMS range when

the leads are not connected to anything or when the measured

value is higher than the selected resistance range.

PreparationForUse-Unpacking

Your shipping carton should include the CR50A, one test lead set

(one black, one red), one pair of alligator clips, one 9V battery

(installed), one spare 0.1A/250V fuse (inside the case), a holster, a

warranty card and this manual. If any item is damaged or missing,

return to the place of purchase for an exchange.

MeasuringProcedures

General: When connecting or disconnecting test leads to/from

a circuit, always ﬁrst turn off power to device or circuit being

tested and discharge all capacitors.

Resistance Measurement (Fig -1-)

1. Turn off power to the resistance to be measured

and discharge any capacitors. Any voltage present

during a resistance measurement will cause inaccurate

readings.·Connect red test lead to +Rx Input (red) and black

test lead to -Rx Input.

2. Set Function/Range Switch to the desired Ωposition.

3. Connect test leads to resistance or circuit to be measured.

4. Read resistance value on Digital Display. Open circuits will be

displayed as an overload condition.

Note: On the 20Ωrange, an adjustment potentiometer (ZERO

ADJ.) allows you to zero out the test lead resistance. Short the

test leads and adjust the knob until the display reads zero.

Diode and Transistor Test (Fig -2-)

The diode test measures the voltage drop across the diode junction.

1. Connect the red test lead to the +Rx Input (red) and the black

test lead to the –Rx Input.

2. Set the Function/range switch to position.

3. Apply probe tip of red lead to the anode and black lead to

the cathode of the diode. The meter’s display indicates the

forward voltage drop (approximately 0.7V for silicon diode

or 0.4V for germanium diode). Meter will display overload

condition for an open diode.

4. Reverse test lead connections to the diode to perform a

reverse bias test. Overload indicates a good diode.

Note: Overload condition for both reverse and forward bias tests

indicate an open diode. A low voltage reading for both bias tests

indicates a shorted diode. If the diode is shunted by a resistor of

1000 ohms or less, it must be removed from the circuit before

taking the measurement. Bipolar transistor junctions may be

tested in the same manner described above.

Continuity Test

The Continuity test checks electrical continuity between two

contact points.

1. Set the Function/Range switch to .

2. Plug the black test lead into the –Rx jack (black) and connect

the test lead tip to one of the contact points.

3. Plug the red test lead into the +Rx jack (red) and connect its

test lead point to the other contact point. (See Figure 1 for

connections).

4. The internal beeper emits a tone when resistance is less than

approx. 75Ω

Capacitance Measurement (Fig -3-)

Discharge all voltage from the capacitor (via a 100kΩresistor)

before measuring its value.

1. Connect the red test lead to the Cx+ input and the black test

lead to the Cx– input.

2. Set the function/range switch to the capacitance range that

gives the best resolution.

3. Apply probe tips to the capacitor leads. When measuring

electrolytic capacitors, observe correct polarity.

4. Read the capacitance value on the display (you may have

to wait a few seconds until the capacitor is fully charged). If

“OL” appears in the highest range, the capacitor is too large

to be measured.

Note: For small value measurements utilize CAP Zero Adjust to

eliminate test lead capacitance (±20pF).

Note: Small value capacitors can also be measured by inserting

their leads directly into the slots in the meter.

SafetyTestLeads

The test leads included with your meter have shrouded

banana plugs to eliminate the possibility of shock if the plugs

accidentally pull out of the meter while making a measurement.

Always inspect the test leads for damage before making any

measurements.

isolate the cause of the problem:

1. Check the battery.

2. Review the operating instructions for possible mistakes

3. in operating procedure.

4. Inspect and test the Test Probes for a broken or intermittent

connection.

5. Inspect and test the fuse. See Fuse Replacement.

Except for the replacement of the battery or fuse, repair of the

multimeter should be performed only by a Factory Authorized

Service Center or by other qualiﬁed instrument service personnel.

The front panel and case can be cleaned with a mild solution

of detergent and water. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth and

allow to dry completely before using. Do not use aromatic

hydrocarbons or chlorinated solvents for cleaning.
