Safety Symbols and Information

!Caution ! Refer to the explanation in this Manual

Caution ! Risk of electric shock

Earth (Ground)

This meter has been designed to be safe in use, but the operator must use caution in its operation.

The rules listed below should be carefully followed for safe operation.

1. NEVER apply voltage or current to the meter that exceeds the specified maximum:

2. USE EXTREME CAUTION when working with high voltages.

3. DO NOT measure voltage if the voltage on the "COM" input jack exceeds 600V above earth

ground.

4. ALWAYS turn off the power and disconnect the test leads before opening the back to replace

the fuse or batteries.

5. NEVER operate the meter unless the back cover and the battery/fuse door are in place and

fastened securely.

Operation

AC Current Measurements (True RMS)

WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from the meter before making current

measurements.

1) Set the Function switch to the 400mA, 4000mA, or 30A AC range.

2) Press the jaw trigger and clamp around, fully enclosing a single conductor.

Do not allow a gap between the two halves of the jaw. Refer to the diagram

at right for the correct way to enclose a single conductor.

3) Read the AC Current value on the LCD’s digital or bargraph display.

DC Current Measurements

WARNING: To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from the meter before making current

measurements.

1) Set the Function switch to the mA or 30A DC range.

2) Press the DCA zero key to null the meter display.

3) Press the Trigger to open the current sense Jaw.

4) Fully enclose the conductor to be measured. Do not allow a gap between the two halves of the

jaw.

5) Read the DC Current value on the LCD’s digital or bargraph display.

AC Voltage Measurements (True RMS)

WARNING: To avoid electric shock or damage to the meter, do not make any voltage

measurements that exceed the maximum specified limits.

1) Set the Function switch to the 400V AC position.

2) Insert the test leads to the meter as follows: Red lead to “V” terminal; Black lead to the COM

input.

3) Connect the test leads to the circuit or device under test.

4) Read the AC Voltage value on the LCD’s digital or bargraph display.

DC Voltage Measurements

WARNING: To avoid electric shock or damage to the meter, do not make any voltage

measurements that exceed the maximum specified limits.

1) Set the Function switch to the 400V DC position.

2) Insert the test leads to the meter as follows: Red lead to “V” terminal; Black lead to the COM

input.

3) Connect the test leads to the circuit or device under test.

4) Read the DC Voltage value on the LCD’s digital or bargraph display.

Advanced Features

Relative Measurements

1) Press the ZERO key. The displayed reading will zero and the word ZERO will appear on the

upper portion of the LCD.

2) All subsequent measurements will now be displayed with respect to the zeroed reading. For

example, if a 20A reading is zeroed and a 30A reading is subsequently measured, the LCD will

display 10A.

3) To return to normal operation, press and hold the ZERO key for 2 seconds until the word ZERO

switches off.

4) Note that Relative mode is not available if MIN/MAX mode is enabled.

Data Hold

To freeze the current reading on the LCD, press the Data Hold key. The word HOLD will appear on

the LCD while the meter is in the Data Hold mode. To release the Data Hold function and return the

meter to normal operation, press the Data Hold key again. The word HOLD will switch off.

MIN/MAX Readings

Pressing the MIN/MAX key allows the meter to display the highest and then the lowest readings

encountered. Press the MIN/MAX key once to view the minimum reading, press it again to view the

maximum reading. Note that the meter will only change its displayed reading when a measurement

is taken higher than the previous MAX or lower than the previous MIN readings. The HOLD display

icon (along with the MIN or MAX icon) will appear on the LCD in MIN/MAX mode. Pressing the

MIN/MAX key a 3rd time returns the meter to normal operation.

Auto Power Off

To extend battery life, the meter will auto power off after 30 minutes of operation. To resume

operation, either turn the meter OFF and then ON again, or press the HOLD button. To disable the

auto power off function, press down the “HOLD” key while turning the meter on.

Maintenance

Battery Replacement

1) When the low battery symbol appears on the LCD the batteries must be replaced.

2) Turn the meter OFF and remove the rear battery compartment Phillips screw.

3) Lift off the battery compartment cover and replace the two 1.5V AA batteries.

4) Replace the compartment cover and secure the screw.
