4. OPERATING INSTRUCTION
4.1 DATA HOLD
If you need data hold when measuring, you can
put on “HOLD”, it will hold the reading; if you put
the button again, data hold will not continue.
4.2 FUNCTION TRANSFORM
Put down the "FUNC" when measuring the current
and voltage. Meter will be transformed between
DC and AC range. Put "FUNC" when measuring
the resistance, capacitance, diode and continuity,
meter will transform among them.
4.3 RANGE TRANSFORM
The auto range is used when measuring the
current, voltage and resistance. Put down the
"RANGE" if the manual range is needed. Each
time you put down, range will go upward; the
minimum range is transformed if "RANGE" is put
down at the maximum range. If the "RANGE" is put
down more than two seconds, auto range is used
again
4.4 HZ/DUTY TRANSFORM
Put down the "Hz%." when measuring the Hz
range. Meter will be transformed at DUTY range.
- 23 -
Press the "Hz%" again, meter will recover the Hz
range.
When measuring at the voltage range and
current range, put down the " Hz%" to be Hz range
and the frequency of the signal for the voltage and
current are measured then. Press the " Hz%"
again to be the DUTY range and the DUTY
CYCLE of the signal for the voltage and current
are measured then. Press the " Hz%" again, meter
will be back to the condition of the voltage and
current measuring. The range of voltage and
current are locked under this condition, which can
be cancelled by rotating the transform switch or
put down the "RANGE”.
4.5 RELATIVE TRANSFORM
When measuring, put down the "REL.", meter will
be transformed at relative measuring, initial display
will show ”000”; press the "REL" again, meter will
recover the normal working condition. This can not
be used under “0L” condition.
4.6 BACK LIGHT
If the light is too dark to make the reading difficult
when measuring, you can press the ”LIGHT”
button to open the back light.
- 24 -
NOTE:
LED is the main source of back light. Its working
current is large, although the meter has the timer
equipment (time is 5 seconds and it will off
automatically after 5 seconds); often use back light
will shorten the battery life, you’d better not to use
the back light so frequently if it’s not necessary.
When the battery voltage is less than 7V, it will
show “ ”. But if you use back light at the same
time, maybe “ ” will come up even if the battery
voltage is more than 7V, because the working
current is higher and the voltage will decline.
(When “ “ shows, the accuracy of the
measurement can not be assured.) You need not
replace the battery. When you use normally (back
light is not using), “ ” will not show up. You need
replace it till “ ”show again.
4.7 AUTO POWER OFF
If there’s no any operation within fifteen minutes
after power is on, meter will auto power off with five
short sounds and a long sound in a minute.
After auto power off, if stir the transform switch or
put down any button of “HOLD”
“FUNC””RANGE””Hz%””REL”, meter will
-25 -
recover the working condition.
If presses the “FUNC” when power is on, auto
power off disable.
4.8 PREPARATION FOR MEASUREMENT
4.8.1 Turn the transform switch. If the battery
voltage is less than 7V, display will show “ ”, the
battery should be changed at this time.
4.8.2 The “ ” besides the input lead shows that
the input voltage or current should be less than
specification on the sticker of the meter to protect
the inner circuit from damaging.
4.8.3 Select a transform switch accordingly for the
item to be measured.
4.8.4 When connection, first connect to the public
testing line, then to the electriferous testing line.
When you’ll remove it, you should remove
the elecriferous one.

4.16.4 Connect test leads across two points of the
circuit under testing.
4.16.5 If continuity existsi.e., resistance less than
about 40, built-in buzzer will sound.
4.16.6 You can get reading from LCD.
NOTE:
If the input open circuit (or the circuit resistance
measured is higher than 400), then the figure
‘0L’ will be displayed.
4.17 FREQUENCY MEASURING
4.17.1 Connect the black test lead to the COM jack
-35-
and the red test lead to the Hz jack.
4.17.2 Set the transform switch at the Hz range
position (or at the ACV range and the DCV
range, put down the “Hz%” to transform to
Hz measurement).
4.17.3 Connect test leads across the source or
load under measurement.
4.17.4 You can get reading from LCD.
4.18 DUTY CYCLE MEASURING
4.18.1 Connect the black test lead to the COM jack
and the red test lead to the Hz jack.
4.18.2 Set the transform switch at the Hz range
position.
4.18.3 Put down the "Hz%" to enter the DUTY
measurement (or set the transform switch at
the ACV range and the DCV range, put
down the “Hz%” to transform to DUTY
measurement).
4.18.4 Connect test leads across the source or
load under measurement.
4.18.5 You can get reading from LCD.

4.19 TEMPERATURE MEASURING
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, do not connect the thermocouples with the electriferous circuit.
4.19.1 Set the transform switch at the desired
range position.
4.19.2 The ‘LCD’ display will show the current
environment temperature.
4.19.3 when measuring the temperature with
thermocouple, ‘K’ type probe for this meter
can be used. Insert the black plug to the
COM jack and the red one to the jack,
touch the end of the temperature sensor to
the area or surface of the object for
measurement.
4.19.4 You can get reading from LCD.
NOTE:
With better hermetization, the meter’s
temperature measured circuit and environment
need a little longer time to reach heat balance, and
then accurate reading can be gotten.

4.20 HUMIDITY MEASURING
WARNING
To avoid damage to the meter, input plug can not connect with any electric signal.
4.20.1 Set the transform switch at the %RH range
position.
4.20.2 The ‘LCD’ display will show the current
environment humidity.
NOTE:
When the tested environment humidity value
changed. It need to a few minutes to get the stable
"RH" reading.
4.21 SOUND LEVEL (dB) MEASURING
WARNING
To avoid damage to the meter, input plug can not connect with any electric signal.
4.21.1 Set the transform switch at the dB range
position.
4.21.2 Move the sensor in front of the meter to the
sound source in a horizontal position.
4.21.3 The ‘LCD’ display will show the current
- 38 -
sound level (dB).
NOTE:
The Fast response is suitable to measure
sudden bursts and peak values from sound
source.
Strong wind (over 10m/sec.) striking the
microphone call cause misreading for
measurement in windy locations, a windscreen
should be used in front of microphone.
4.22 ILLUMINANCE MEASURING
WARNING
To avoid damage to the meter, input plug can not connect with any electric signal.
4.22.1 Set the transform switch at the Lux or
×10Lux range position.
4.22.2 Move the sensor in front of the meter to light
source in a horizontal position.
4.22.3 The ‘LCD’ display will show the illuminance
at the meter.
- 39 -
NOTE:
When only the figure ‘OL’ is displayed, it
indicates overrange situation and the higher range
has to be selected.
Spectral sensitivity characteristic: To the detector,
the applied photo diode with filters makes the
spectral sensitivity, characteristic almost meet

5. MAINTENANCE
5.1 BATTERY REPL ACEMENT
WARNING Before attempting to remove the case, be sure that test leads have been disconnected from measurement circuit to avoid electric shock hazard.
5.1.1 If the sign‘ ’appears on the LCD display, it
indicates that the battery should be
replaced.
5.1.2 Loosen the fixing screw of the case and
remove it. (see the right photo)
5.1.3 Replace the exhausted battery with a new
one.
5.1.4 Put the case as its origin.
- 42 -
NOTE:
The polarity of the battery can not be set inversely.
5.2 FUSE REPLACEMENT
WARNING To avoid electrical shock, remove test leads from measurement circuits before replacing the fuse. For protection against fire, replace fuses only with specified ratings: F 500mA/250V (quick acting).
5.2.1 Fuse rarely need replacement and blow
almost always as a result of the operator’s
error.
5.2.2 Loosen the fixing screw of the case and
remove it.
5.2.3 Replace the blown fuse with ratings
specified.
5.2.4 Put the case as its origin.
- 43-
5.3 TEST LEADS REPLACEMENT
WARNING Full in compliance with safety standards can be guaranteed only if used with test leads supplied. If necessary, they must be replaced with the same model or same electric ratings. Electric ratings of the test leads: 600V 10A
You must be replaced the test leads if the lead is exposed.
