5 Operation
Warning
The meter must be securely
grounded during measuring, and the
ing position not close to the
so to avoid the risk of electric
shock
.
hold
sensor
Before use, the meter must be grounded. Please
choose one of the following two methods to ground the
meter:
1. The first method is connecting the meter's ground
socket with one end of the grounding wire of
accessory and connecting to the earth end of the
building with another end of the grounding wire, or
connecting to the electrical socket for earthing, or
clamping the earth end with a crocodile clip.
2. The second method is the operator wears the
anti-static wrist strap and connecting to the earth
end of the building with another end of the anti-static
wrist strap. Note that the anti-static wrist strap is not
an accessory and shall beprepared by yourself.
During the measuring for static voltage, please
fasten ceramic spacers on the fix-threads besides the
sensor. Keep the sensor from the area under test for 1
inch (2.54 cm).
Clickthe Power button.
Make sure the meter is grounded before operating.
Aim the sensor point to the area under test, keeping
your fingers away from the area under test as possible.
Readthe value (static voltage value) on the LCD.
As completing a measurement, click the
button to lock the reading permanently to hold the

reading on the LCD for a long time; click the
button again to unlock to unlock the reading.
Click the button to continuously update the
maximum measuring value on the LCD to keep the
+peak value (max. value), click the button again
to cancel.
Click the button to continuously update the
minimum measuring value on the LCD to keep the -peak
value (min. value), click the button again to
cancel.
5-1 Disable Auto Power Off Mode
The meter will automatically power off after
powering on for about 15 minutes. The LCD
displays symbol at the mode. If to
disable the function, press and hold the
button for more than 2 seconds.
5-2 Zeroing
Prior to measuring the static voltage, click the
button for more than 2 seconds to clear the reading if an
old reading survived on the LCD. (Note: Set the static
voltage of the surrounding environment to be 0, if not,
the measuring may be biased.)
5-3 Manual record mode
At measuring mode, click button to record
