Safety Information
•The 34XR-A Digital Multimeter is UL, cUL, and EN61010-1 certified for
Installation Category III – 600V and Category II – 1000V. It is recommended for
use with local level power distribution, appliances, portable equipment, etc,
where only smaller transient overvoltages may occur, and not for primary
supply lines, overhead lines and cable systems.
•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 34XR-A is a True rms autoranging handheld digital multimeter for measuring
or testing the following:
•DC and AC voltage •Temperature
•DC and AC current •Capacitance
•Resistance •Diodes
•Frequency •Continuity
•Dutycycle
Additional features include: MIN MAX, HOLD, Backlight, and Range Lock
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 34XR-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. 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. RANGE no longer shows on the display.
Use autorange for all initial measurements. Then, when appropriate, use the RANGE
button to select and lock a range. Warning
To avoid electrical shock while manual ranging use the display
annunciators to identify the actual range selected.
Correcting an Overload (oor -o ) Indication W
An oindication may appear on the display to indicate that an overload condition
exists. For voltage and current measurements, an overload should be immediately
corrected by selecting a higher range. If the highest range setting does not
eliminate the overload, interrupt the measurement until the problem is identified
and eliminated. The oindication is normal for some functions; for example,
resistance, continuity, and diode test.
Measuring DC Voltage See Figure -1-
1. Set the Function Switch to v.
2. If RANGE is displayed, press the RANGE button to enable autoranging.
3. Connect the Test Leads: Red to E, Black to COM
4. Connect the Test Probes to the circuit test points.
5. Read the display, and, if necessary, correct any overload (o) conditions.

Measuring AC Voltage (True rms) See Figures -2- & -3-
See Additional Features to find out the advantages of true rms.
1. Set the Function Switch to V.
2. If RANGE is displayed, press the RANGE button to enable autoranging.
3. Connect the Test Leads: Red to E, Black to COM
4. Connect the Test Probes to the circuit test points
5. Read the display, and, if necessary, correct any overload (o) conditions.
Preparing for Current Measurements
•Turn off circuit power before connecting the test probes.
•Allow the meter to cool between measurements if current measurements
approach or exceeds 10 amps.
•A warning tone sounds if you connect a test lead to a current input before you
select a current range.
•Open circuit voltage at the measurement point must not exceed 1000 V.
•Always measure current in series with the load. Never measure current across a
voltage source.
Measuring DC Current See Figure -4-
1. Set the Function Switch to a Afunction and range.
2. If RANGE is displayed, press the RANGE button to enable autoranging.
3. Connect the Test Leads: Red to µA mA or 10A, Black to COM
4. Turn off power to the circuit being measured.
5. Open the test circuit (X) to establish measurement points.
6. Connect the Test Probes in series with the load.
7. Turn on power to the circuit being measured.
8. Read the display, and, if necessary, correct any overload (o) conditions.
Measuring AC Current (True rms) See Figures -3- & -5-
See Additional Features to find out the advantages of true rms.
1. Set the Function Switch to a afunction and range.
2. If RANGE is displayed, press the RANGE button to enable autoranging.
3. Connect the Test Leads: Red to µA mA or 10A, Black to COM
4. Turn off power to the circuit being measured.
5. Open the test circuit (X) to establish measurement points.
6. Connect the Test Probes in series with the load.
7. Turn on power to the circuit being measured.
8. Read the display, and, if necessary, correct any overload (o) conditions.
