Frequency Measurement
WARNING:
Observe all safety precautions when working on live voltages.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
Hz position.
2. Insert the black test lead into the
negative COM input jack and the red
test lead into the positive Hz input jack.
3. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit
under test.
4. Read the frequency on the LCD display.
Temperature Measurements
WARNINGS:
To avoid electric shock, do not let the temperature
probe contact live circuits.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
Temp °F or Temp °C position.
2. Connect the Temperature Probe to the
Banana Plug Adapter.
Insert the adapter into the negative COM
and the positive Temp input jacks, making
sure to observe the correct polarity.
3. Touch the tip of the Temperature Probe to the
part you wish to measure. Keep the probe
touching the part under test until the reading
stabilizes (about 30 seconds).
4. Read the temperature on the LCD display.

Operation
Replacing the Battery
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, remove test leads from the meter before removing the battery door.
WARNING:
When replacing the battery or fuses, be sure to secure the back cover panel and battery
compartment door firmly to maintain the waterproof and dust proof integrity of the meter. Loose or overtightened
screws, or an improperly seated o-ring may compromise the meter's water and dust ingress protection.
1. When the battery drops below the operating voltage, the
appear on the LCD display. The battery should be replaced immediately.
2. Remove the two Phillips screws from the
battery door located on the back of the meter.
3. Remove door.
4. Replace battery with a fresh 9V battery.
5. Install battery door and tighten screws.
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, do not operate your meter until the battery door is in place and
fastened securely.
Replacing the Fuses
WARNINGS:
To avoid electric shock, remove test leads from the meter before removing the fuse cover.
WARNINGS:
When replacing the battery or fuses, be sure to secure the back cover panel and battery
compartment door firmly to maintain the waterproof and dust proof integrity of the meter. Loose or overtightened
screws, or an improperly seated o-ring may compromise the meter's water and dust ingress protection.
1. Remove the six Phillips screws that secure the
back cover to the meter. (Lift the tilt stand to
expose the two bottom screws.)
2. Remove back cover.
3. Remove the old fuse from its holder
by gently pulling it out.
4. Install the new fuse into the holder.
5. Always use a UL listed fuse of the proper size
and value (0.5A /1000V (6.3 x 32mm) fast blow
for the 400mA range, (10A/1000V (10 x 38mm)
fast blow for the 10A range).
6. Install back cover and tighten screws.
WARNINGS:
To avoid electric shock,
do not operate your meter until the battery and
fuse cover are in place and fastened securely.
