Introduction
WWarning
Read “Safety Information” before using the
meter.
The Fluke 789 ProcessMeter™(referred to as “the
meter”) is a handheld, battery-operated tool for measuring
electrical parameters, supplying steady or ramping
current to test process instruments, and providing a > 24
V loop power supply. It has all the features of a digital
multimeter, plus current output capability.
If the meter is damaged or something is missing, contact
the place of purchase immediately. Contact a Fluke
distributor for information about DMM (digital multimeter)
accessories. To order replacement parts or spares, see
Table 8 near the end of this manual.

Degree 2.
A Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose
hazard(s) to the user; a Caution identifies conditions and
actions that may damage the meter or the equipment
under test.
International symbols used on the meter and in this
manual are explained in Table 1.
WWarning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal
injury:
•Do not use the meter if it is damaged.
Before using the meter, inspect the case.
Look for cracks or missing plastic. Pay
particular attention to the insulation
surrounding the connectors.
•Make sure the battery door is closed and
latched before operating the meter.
•Remove test leads from the meter before
opening the battery door.
•Inspect the test leads for damaged
insulation or exposed metal. Check test
lead continuity. Replace damaged test
leads before using the meter.
•Do not use the meter if it operates
abnormally. Protection may be impaired.
When in doubt, have the meter serviced.
•Do not use the Meter around explosive
gas, vapor or in damp or wet
environments.

•Use only type AA batteries, properly
installed in the meter case, to power the
meter.
•When servicing the meter, use only
specified replacement parts.
•Use caution when working above 30 V ac
rms, 42 V ac pk, or 60 V dc. Such voltages
pose a shock hazard.
•When using the probes, keep fingers
behind the finger guards on the probes.
•Connect the common test lead before
connecting the live test lead. When
disconnecting test leads, disconnect the
live test lead first.
WCaution
To avoid possible damage to meter or to
equipment under test:
•Disconnect the power and discharge all high-
voltage capacitors before testing resistance
or continuity.
•Use the proper jacks, function, and range for
the measurement or sourcing application.

How to Get Started
If familiar with the Fluke 80 Series DMM, read “Using the
Current Output Functions,” review the tables and figures in
“Getting Acquainted with the Meter,” and begin using the
meter.
If unfamiliar with Fluke 80 Series DMMs, or DMMs in
general, read “Measuring Electrical Parameters” in
addition to the sections referenced in the previous
paragraph.
The sections following “Using the Current Output
Functions” contain information about the power-up
options, and battery and fuse replacement instructions.
