5.1 DCV & ACV MEASUREMENT
1) set the Function range swttch at the required position.
2) CCInnect black tmt bad to 'CCIM" terminal and red te$t lead
to tre
'VIOHM" input tenninal.
3) Conned test leads to measuring point and read the display value re
polarfu of re red lead mnnedion will be indicated at the
the vofhge.
sarne tme ii
Noe:
a)
l! the volbge to be tested is unknown beforehand, set the
-fqnction{ane switch to fre highest range and rcrk dovur.
b)
]n{.en only the figure "1" ir displayed-over rangq is being
indicated and the func{ion range switc*l should ne set to

higher range.
c) Never try to measure the voltage above 1000v1 Alfrough he
indication is pssible t'0 show, there is a danger of darnaging
the internalcircuitry.
5;2 DGA & ACA MEASUREMENT
1) Connmt the black test lead to the "COM" terminal and fre rcd test
' lead to "A' terminal for a rnaximum of 0.5A (mqdel Mg40D
2A)
***u*
2\ set fre function range switdr at tlre requird position.
3i Conned test leads to measuring poinh and read fre display value.
The polanly at the red test lead mnnedion will be indicated ait tne
sarne
time as the cunent.
Note:
a) lf fre cunent range is unknawn hforehand, set'the furxfion
range switch to the highest range and urork down.
b) Wnn only the figur "1" is displayed, over range is being
indicated and fre fundion ilange suntch should be set to a
higher range.
c) f;xcessive current will belaw the fuse frat must be replamd
when the input is fom "A' termlnal. Fuse tlpe is 0.5A (fflodel
M840D use 2A).
d) A fuse dres not proted he 20A range; rnaximum 10A
mntinuous or ma<imum ?04 rneasuring me rnust be less
han 15 seconds.
5.3 RESISTAT{TH MFASUREMHNT
1) Conned black test lead to 'COM" teffninal and red te$t lead t'r the
'V/OHM" input terminal.
2t $et fle func{icn range switch to $le OHM range.
3) Connect the test leads acro$$ fie resishnm under rneasurement
and read the display value.
Note:
a) The plarity of re red test lead i$ "+".
b) When fre input is not mnnected, i.e. at CIpen circuit, the figure
'*1" \uill be displayed for the over range condition.
c) lf tt're resistane value being measurcd exmds the rnaximum
value of the range selected, an over range indicaon "1" will be
displayed and function range swthlr should h set to a higher
range.
d) ?00Mfi range has a 10 dbts (1Mn) mnstant, fte figure will
appear in short ciru.it sbtus, it should be subfacted fom
rneasurernent result, for instance: when rneasuring 100MCI
resistor, figure 101. will be shown in display and the last 10
drgit$ shauld,h subtracted
5.4 CAPACITANCE MEA$UREMfr NT
1) Set the fundion range switch at ttre "Ct'' psition. Before mnneding
the capacitor, re display muld h
zeroed automatically slows.
2) Connec{ the test capacitcr to the "Ct'' input socket (not test leads
and read the display value.
Note; The tested" capacitor should be dischargCId befare tfre tmting
