1. SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN USING THIS

METER. Improper use of this device can result in electric

shock or destruction of the meter. Take all normal safety

precautions and follow the safeguards suggested in this

manual.

To exploit full functionality of the meter and ensure safe

operation, please read carefully and follow the directions in

this manual.

This meter has been designed according to IEC-1010 concerning

electronic measuring instruments with an overvoltage category

CAT ΙΙΙ 600V and pollution 2.

Follow all safety and operating instructions to ensure safe use of

the meter.

With proper use and care, this digital multimeter will give you

years of satisfactory service.

1.1 PRELIMINARY

1.1.1 When using the meter, the user must observe all normal safety

rules concerning:

- General protection against electric shock

- Protection of the meter against misuse

1.1.2 When the meter is delivered, check whether it has been

damaged in transit.

1.1.3 After being stored and delivered under harsh conditions, the

meter should be checked and confirmed whether any damages

- 1 -

have been incurred.

1.1.4 Test leads must be kept in good condition. Before using check

whether the insulation on test leads has been damaged and any

wire has been exposed.

1.1.5 Use the test leads supplied to ensure operation safety. If

required, they must be replaced with test leads of the same

model or class.

1.2 DURING USE

4. OPERATION INSTRUCTION

4.1 HOLDING READINGS

4.1.1 Press the “HOLD/B.L” button to hold the readings while

taking measurement and the value on the display will be held.

4.1.2 Press the “HOLD/B.L” button again to release the reading

hold function.

4.2 SWITCHING REL

1) REL key is the relative value measurement communication

transmission key that acts with trigger. Press this key will enter into

the relative value measurement mode. The system will save the

display value in the memory as the reference value. When doing the

measurement later, the display value will be the difference value

that the entry value deducts the reference value.

2) Press REL

△

key will enter into the Manual Measurement Mode

automatically.

3) In REL

△

measurement status, press the key again, the REL

△

function will be relocked.

4) Press the key in HOLD status, HOLD function will be cancelled.

The system will save the display value in the memory as the

reference value. When doing the measurement later, the display

value is the difference that the entry value deducts the reference

value.

5) Press SELECT Key or use Mode Switch will cancel REL∆

- 16 –

measurement mode, and go back to the normal mode (REL∆will

disappear in the LCD).

6) OL triggering: Under REL

△

mode, OL shows when input value

larger than the allowed value of the measurement mode. Press the

key again, the relative measurement function will be cancelled.

Disable to enter REL

△

mode when OL shows.

7) No analog section bar function under REL

△

mode.

4.3 SWITCHING FREQUENCY OR DUTY

4.3.1 During working at the voltage or current ranges, press the

“Hz/%” button one time, frequency of the voltage or current

will be measured. Press the “Hz/%” button twice, the meter

will be changed into the duty range for measuring the duty

cycle of the voltage or current. At the same time, the meter is

changed into manual mode.

4.3.2 Press the "Hz/%" button again, meter will be back to the

condition of the voltage or current measuring.

NOTE:

During working at maximum or minimum value measuring

function, the meter can’t be changed into frequency or duty cycle

measuring mode.

4.4 SWITCHING MAXIMUM OR MINIMUM VALUE

4.4.1 At all ranges, press the "MAX/MIN" button one time, the

meter can be set to maximum value measuring mode; press

the button twice, the meter can be set to minimum value

measuring mode; press the button three times, the meter will

get back to normal test mode, and the maximum and
