DC mV/AC mV Measurement

The testing chart is shown in the Figure. The voltage measurement range is of 10μV…220mV and the measurement methods are as follows:

  1. Turn on the power switch and set the rotary switch to the position .
  2. Insert the red testing line into the VΩHz end and the black testing line into the COM end.
  3. Press the FUNC. key to select DCmV measurement modes.
  4. When performing DCmV or AcmV measurement, connect the red probe to the positive polarity of the measured voltage and the black probe to its negative polarity.
  5. Read the measured value from the display screen. If OL displaying on the meter, it indicates the measured voltage exceeding the range of the meter and it is necessary to remove both the red and black probes from the measured circuit immediately.
  6. In this mode, it is null to press the RANGE key
Notes:
  • In case of probe hanging in the air, the voltage inducted by the testing line may cause unstable readings on the display screen, but that will not affect the accuracy of measurement.
  • The meter is a true rms responding meter. When the input leads are shorted together in the ac functions, the Meter may display a residual reading between 1 and 30 counts. It will not attect stated accuracy, but if using REL to offset this reading may produce a much larger constant error in later measurements.

DC/AC μA Measurement

The measurement is seen in Figure, the measurement range of current is of AC or DC 0.01μA…2200μA, and the measurement methods are as follows:

  1. Turn on the power switch and set the rotary switch to the position .
  2. Insert the red testing line into the mA/μA input end and the black testing line into the COM input end.
  3. Press the FUNC. key to select the DC μA or AC μA measurement modes.
  4. Turn off the power of the measured circuit, connect the red and black probes to the measured circuit in serial way and then turn on the power of the measured circuit.
  5. Read the measured value from the display screen. If it displays as positive during the DC measurement, it means the current is flowing into the meter from the red testing line, while it displaying as negative, it means the current is flowing into the meter from the black testing line. If it displays as OL, it means current exceeding range.
  6. During measurement of DC μA or AC μA, it is possible to select range manually by pressing the RANGE key.
Notes: In this mode the Meter may display a initial reading between 1 and 5 counts when no signal input, but that will not affect the accuracy of measurement. Using REL to offset this reading may produce a much larger constant error in later measurements.

Backlight Control

Pressing the LIGHT key, the LCD display screens backlight will be lighted and after 60 seconds it will automatically go out. If press the LIGHT key again when the backlight is lighting, the backlight can be turned off in advance. Lighting the backlight will cause three-time higher energy consumption than the ordinary operation. So by less use of backlight, power can be saved.

Maximum Value/Minimum Value Measurement

Except for frequency and diode measurements, by pressing the MAX/MIN key the meter will enter the maximum value and minimum value record state and display the maximum value. The meter measures the present value and continuously judges if it is necessary to update the maximum or minimum value. Pressing the MAX/MIN key again it is possible to select displaying the minimum value, the current value or the maximum value. When the meter being in the maximum and the minimum value record state, the analog bar is always indicating the present measurement value but not the MAX/MIN value. Under the maximum and minimum value record state, press the MAX/MIN key for two seconds and then release it, the meter will exit the MAX/MIN record state. When measurement over, OL will display instead of showing the MAX/MIN value.

PEAK max/min Measurement

When you measurement AC signal, by pressing the PEAK key less than 1second the meter will enter the Peak maximum value after it be calibration. Pressing the PEAK key again (less than 1s) it will enter the Peak minimum value. By pressing the PEAK key for more than 1 seconds and release it, the meter will exit the PEAK max/min record state. When measurement over, OL will display instead of showing the PEAK max/min value.

Relative Value Measurement

Except for frequency/duty ratio and diode measurements, all other measurements can employ relative measurement. Press REL key to enter relative measurement and the meter will record the initial value when pressing the key. And the later displayed value is:

Displayed value = present measurement value —Initial value

Press REL again to exit relative measurement. Changes of measurement value may be found in relative measurement which also can be used for the small resistance and the small capacitance measurements, for example, when performing resistance measurement, connect the red testing line and the black testing line in short, press the REL key to record the values of resistance (resistance of both the red and black lines), and after that performing resistance measurement again the lead resistance will have been taken off from the displayed value. When performing capacitance measurement, open the red and black testing line, press REL key to record the distributed capacitance, and after that performing capacitance measurement again, the distributed capacitance will have been taken off from the displayed value. During relative measurement, analog bar is always indicating the present measurement value but not the relative value. When measurement over, OL will display instead of showing the relative value.

ACV Measurement

The measurement is shown as in Figure, with voltage range being of AC 0.23V…1000V and the measurement methods being as follows:

  1. Turn on the power switch and set the rotary switch to the position of .
  2. Insert the red and black testing lines into VΩHz end and COM end respectively.
  3. Press FUNC. key to select ACV measurement mode.
  4. Connect the meter to the two ends of the measured voltage with the red and black probes.
  5. Read the meter’s data from the display screen. When OL displaying on the meter, it indicates the measured voltage exceeding the meter’s range and it is necessary to remove both the red and black probes from the measured circuit immediately.
  6. By pressing the RANGE key it is possible to select range manually. Indicator of range displays range. While displaying OL during manual range measurement, it is necessary to select a larger range. When OL displaying under the maximum range, it indicates the voltage exceeding 1000V, so it is necessary to remove both the red and black probes from the measured circuit immediately.
Notes: in case of probe hanging in the air, the voltage inducted by the testing line may cause unstable readings on the display screen, but that will not affect the accuracy of measurement.

Warning! Not try to measure a voltage higher than 1000V

Capacitance Measurement

The measurement chart is seen in Figure. The measurement range of capacitance is of 10pF…220mF and the measurement methods are as follows:

  2. Insert the red and black testing lines into the VΩHz input end and the COM input end respectively.
  3. If exists voltage in the capacitor, connect the two ends of the capacitor for a short time to discharge.
  4. Connect the red and black probes to the two ends of the capacitor, if the measured capacitor is heteropolar, it is necessary to connect the red probe to the positive polarity of the capacitor and the black probe to its negative polarity.
  5. Read the capacitance from the display screen. If capacitance value >220mF, the meter will display OL, while capacitance value <10pF, it will display zero.
  6. It is possible to select range manually by pressing the RANGE key. The indicator of range indicates the value of range. If OL displaying during manual range measurement, it is necessary to select a larger range. If it has been the largest range, which means capacitance value >220mF.
Notes: When performing measurement on 10mF capacitor, in order to ensure measurement accuracy the meter takes a relative long time to discharge capacitor, so it is relatively slow in refreshing the measured value. In addition, not to perform Capacitance measurement on a circuit board on which there are other parallel devices, for that may leads to very large error.
