Safety Notes
Accuracy
We dene measurement tolerances in terms of rdg. (reading) and dgt. (digit) values, with the following meanings:
(Maximum display value or scale length/range)
f.s.
rdg.
dgt.
The maximum displayable value or scale length. This is usually the name of the currently selected range.
(Reading or displayed value) The value currently being measured and indicated on the measuring instrument.
(Resolution) The smallest displayable unit on a digital measuring instrument, i.e., the input value that causes the digital display to show a “1” as the least-signicant digit.
Measurement categories
To ensure safe operation of measuring instruments, IEC 61010 establishes safety standards for various electrical environments, categorized as CAT II to CAT IV, and called measurement categories.
DANGER
• Using a measuring instrument in an environment designated with a higher-numbered category than that for which the instrument is rated could result in a severe accident, and must be carefully avoided.
• Using a measuring instrument without categories in an environment designated with the CAT II to CAT IV category could result in a severe accident, and must be carefully avoided.
CAT II: When directly measuring the electrical outlet receptacles of the primary
electrical circuits in equipment connected to an AC electrical outlet by a power cord (portable tools, household appliances, etc.)
CAT III: When measuring the primary electrical circuits of heavy equipment (xed
installations) connected directly to the distribution panel, and feeders from the distribution panel to outlets
CAT IV: When measuring the circuit from the service drop to the service entrance,
and to the power meter and primary overcurrent protection device (distribution panel)

Usage Notes

Usage Notes
Follow these precautions to ensure safe operation and to obtain the full benets of the various functions.
Bluetooth
This instrument and the LR8410 use radio waves of a band frequency of 2.4 GHz. No radio station license is required to use this product, however, be aware of the following.
®
WARNING
• Do not use this instrument in a system that requires high safety and reliability.
• Do not use this instrument near any medical equipment, such as a pacemaker, etc.
• Do not modify, disassemble, or repair the instrument.
CAUTION
• If this instrument is used near any equipment that uses the same frequency band, such as wireless LAN equipment, etc., communications may become unstable or other equipment may be affected.
• The line-of-sight distance between the instrument and the LR8410 is 30 m. If there is an obstacle (wall, metal screen, etc.), communications may become unstable or the communications distance may become shorter.
• Communications between the instrument and the LR8410 are encrypted by SSP, however, the condentiality of any information is not guaranteed. We are not responsible for any leakage of measurement data by wireless communications.
• This instrument and the LR8410 generate electric waves. Usage of electric waves requires permission and authorization in each country. Using electric waves in any country or region other than the ones listed in the attached document “Precautions Concerning Use of Equipment That Emits Radio Waves” is against the law and may be subject to punishment.
When the instrument is positioned on a stand instead of directly on the oor, communications can become more stable.
