Safety Precautions

1. Improper use of this meter can cause damage, shock, injury or death.

Read and understand this user’s manual before operating the meter.

2. Make sure any covers or battery doors are properly closed and

secured.

3. Always remove the test leads before replacing the battery or fuses.

4. Inspect the condition of the test leads and the meter itself for any

damage before operating the meter. Repair or replace any damage

before use.

5. Do not exceed the maximum rated input limits.

6. Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are

greater than 25VAC rms or 35VDC. These voltages are considered a

shock hazard.

7. Always discharge capacitors and remove power from the device

under test before performing Capacitance, Diode, Resistance or

Continuity tests.

8. Remove the battery from the meter if the meter is to be stored for

long periods.

9. To avoid electric shock, do not measure AC current on any circuit

whose voltage exceeds 500V AC.

10. Voltage checks on electrical outlets can be difficult and misleading

because of the uncertainty of connection to the electrical contacts.

Other means should be used to ensure that the terminals are not

"live".

11. The product is intended only for indoor use

12. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the

manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be

impaired.

13. Pollution degree: 2

Features

Analog Bargraph display

Visual indication of measurement in the tradition of an analog meter

pointer. The bargraph consists of 52 discrete viewing segments. The

bargraph is useful for detecting faulty contacts, identifying

potentiometer gradations, and viewing signal spikes.

True RMS vs. Average Sensing (AC Measurements)

True RMS meters can accurately measure non-sinusoidal waveforms,

as well as distorted sine waves that contain harmonics. Average

Sensing is a fast, accurate and cost effective method of measuring

pure sine wave signals. However, non-sinusoidal waveforms cannot

accurately be measured using Average-sensing techniques.

Backlit display

The MultiLog™ is equipped with a backlight for viewing the LCD

display in poorly lit areas.

Data Hold

The HOLD function freezes the reading on the display for later

viewing.

Manual and Automatic Ranging

The MultiLog™ series multimeters are Autoranging, with manual

override.

Smart Power Auto Power Off

Smart Power shuts the meter down automatically after approximately

17 minutes of inactivity.

Audible Beeper

To disable the audible meter tones, press and hold the Hz key while

powering the meter.

Automatic Test Lead Resistance Compensation

Automatically compensates for the resistance of the test leads, as well

as the internal protection circuitry automatically, ensuring greater

accuracy of low resistance measurements.

Datalogging

The MultiLog™ series of multimeters store reading for review on the

LCD display or downloading to a pc using the supplied software.

Operation

Measurement Considerations

NOTICE: Read and understand all warning and caution statements

listed in the safety section of this operation manual prior to using this

meter.

1. Always move the rotary function switch to the OFF position when the

meter is not in use. This meter has Auto Power OFF that

automatically shuts the meter OFF if 17 minutes elapse without

activity.

2. If "OL" appears on the display during a measurement, the

measurement exceeds the range selected. Change to a higher range.

AC/DC Voltage Measurements

1. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM jack and the red test

lead into the positive Vjack.

2. Set the function switch to the "VAC" "VDC" "mV" position. Press the

SELECT key momentarily to toggle between AC and DC.

3. Read the voltage measurement on the display

AC/DC Current Measurements

CAUTION: Do not make current measurements at 20A for longer than

30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may cause damage to the meter

and/or the test leads.

1. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM jack.

2. For current measurements up to 4000µA, set the function switch to

the "µA" position and insert the red test lead into the mA-µAjack.

3. For current measurements up to 400mA, set the function switch to the

"mA" position and insert the red test lead into the mA-µAjack.

4. For current measurements up to 10A, set the function switch to the

"A" position and insert the red test lead into the Ajack.

5. Press the SELECT key momentarily to toggle between AC and DC.

6. Remove power from the circuit under test and open the circuit at the

point where you wish to measure current.

7. Touch the black test probe tip to the negative side of the circuit and

touch the red test probe tip to the positive side of the circuit.

8. Apply power to the circuit.

9. Read the current on the display
