4. Chiudere saldamente il coperchio del vano batterie.

5.2 Collegamento del puntale di prova

Connect the detachable test leads to the multimeter:

• Inserire il puntale di prova nero nel jack di ingresso "COM" (comune).
• Insert the red test lead into the "VΩmA" input jack for voltagmisurazioni di e, resistenza e corrente.
• Prima di procedere con qualsiasi misurazione, assicurarsi che i collegamenti siano saldi.

6. Istruzioni per l'uso

The Hioki 3030-10 is a manual-ranging multimeter. Always select the appropriate function and range using the rotary switch before making a measurement.

6.1 Volume CCtage Misurazione (V)

1. Impostare il selettore rotativo sul volume CC desideratotage (V) range (e.g., 0.3V, 3V, 12V, 30V, 120V, 300V, 600V). Start with the highest range if the voltage è sconosciuto.
2. Collegare il puntale di prova rosso al lato positivo (+) del circuito e il puntale di prova nero al lato negativo (-).
3. Leggi il vol.tage value from the appropriate DCV scale on the analog display.

6.2 Volume ACtage Measurement (~V)

1. Impostare il selettore rotativo sul volume CA desideratotage (~V) range (e.g., 12V, 30V, 120V, 300V, 600V). Start with the highest range if the voltage è sconosciuto.
2. Collegare i puntali di prova attraverso la tensione CAtage fonte.
3. Leggi il vol.tage value from the appropriate ACV scale on the analog display.

6.3 Misurazione della corrente continua (A)

Attenzione: Collegare sempre il multimetro in serie al circuito quando si misura la corrente. Non collegarlo mai in parallelo a un voltmetro.tage fonte.

1. Set the rotary switch to the desired DC Current (A) range (e.g., 60µA, 30mA, 300mA). Start with the highest range if the current is unknown.
2. Break the circuit and connect the multimeter in series, ensuring the current flows through the meter.
3. Read the current value from the appropriate DCA scale on the analog display.

6.4 Misurazione della resistenza (Ω)

Attenzione: Prima di misurare la resistenza, assicurarsi che il circuito sia disattivato.

1. Set the rotary switch to the desired Resistance (Ω) range (e.g., x1, x10, x100, x1k).
2. Before measuring, short the test leads together and adjust the "Ω ADJ" knob (if present) to zero the meter.
3. Collegare i puntali di prova al componente da misurare.
4. Read the resistance value from the Ω scale on the analog display and multiply by the selected range multiplier.

6.5 Battery Test (BATT 1.5V)

1. Set the rotary switch to the "BATT 1.5V" position.
2. Connect the red test lead to the positive (+) terminal of the 1.5V battery and the black test lead to the negative (-) terminal.
3. Read the battery charge level from the "BATT" scale on the analog display.

6.6 LED Test (LED)

1. Set the rotary switch to the "LED" position.
2. Connect the test leads to the LED. Observe polarity; if the LED does not light, reverse the leads.
3. A lit LED indicates functionality.

6.7 Misurazione della temperatura (TEMP)

This function requires a separately purchased thermistor probe. Refer to the thermistor probe's manual for specific connection and operation instructions.

1. Impostare l'interruttore rotante sulla posizione "TEMP".
2. Connect the thermistor probe to the designated input jacks.
3. Read the temperature from the "TEMP(°C)" scale on the analog display.

7. Manutenzione

7.1 Pulizia

Pulisci il contatore casing con un morbido, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the device is off and disconnected from all circuits before cleaning.

7.2 Sostituzione del fusibile

If the current measurement function ceases to operate, the fuse may need replacement. The Hioki 3030-10 uses a 0.5-amp/250V fuse. Always replace with a fuse of the identical type and rating.

1. Assicurarsi che il multimetro sia spento e che i puntali di prova siano scollegati.
2. Refer to the device's internal diagram (if available) or contact customer support for instructions on accessing the fuse compartment.
3. Carefully remove the old fuse and insert the new 0.5A/250V fuse.
4. Reassemble the meter securely.

7.3 Conservazione

When not in use, store the multimeter in its carrying case in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove batteries if storing for extended periods to prevent leakage.

8. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If the multimeter does not function as expected, consider the following:

• Nessun display/alimentazione: Controllare l'installazione delle batterie e assicurarsi che non siano scariche. Sostituirle se necessario.
• Letture errate:
  • Assicurarsi che siano selezionati la funzione e l'intervallo corretti per la misurazione.
  • Verificare che i puntali di prova siano collegati correttamente e non danneggiati.
  • For resistance measurements, ensure the circuit is de-energized and the meter is zeroed.
• Current Function Not Working: Check the internal fuse (refer to Section 7.2).
• L'ago non si muove: Ensure the meter is powered on and the test leads are making good contact with the circuit. Check for open circuits.

If problems persist after attempting these steps, contact Hioki customer support for further assistance.
