4. Impostazione
4.1. Installazione della batteria
- Assicurarsi che il multimetro sia spento.
- Individuare il vano batteria sul retro del dispositivo.
- Svitare il coperchio del vano batteria.
- Insert four (4) 1.5V AAA batteries, observing correct polarity.
- Riposizionare il coperchio e fissarlo con la vite.
4.2. Collegamento dei puntali di prova
- Per la maggior parte dei volumitage, resistance, capacitance, frequency, and temperature measurements, connect the red test lead to the V/Ω/Hz/CAP/°C input jack and the black test lead to the COM input jack.
- For current measurements up to 600mA, connect the red test lead to the µA/mA input jack and the black test lead to the COM input jack.
- For current measurements up to 10A, connect the red test lead to the 10A input jack and the black test lead to the COM input jack.
5. Istruzioni per l'uso
Turn the rotary switch to the desired measurement function. Use the MODE button to cycle through sub-functions (e.g., AC/DC voltage, diode/continuity). The RANGE button allows manual range selection, while the REL button activates relative measurement. The HOLD button freezes the display reading, and the PEAK button captures peak values. The MAX/MIN/AVG button cycles through maximum, minimum, and average readings.
5.1. Volumetage Measurement (DCV, ACV, ACV+DCV)
- Set the rotary switch to V (DCV) or V~ (ACV).
- Connect test leads as described in Section 4.2 (V/Ω/Hz/CAP/°C and COM).
- Collegare i puntali di prova in parallelo al circuito o al componente da misurare.
- For ACV+DCV or Lo Z (low impedance) measurements, use the MODE button to select the appropriate function.
5.2. Current Measurement (DCA, ACA)
- Set the rotary switch to µA, mA, or 10A.
- Connect test leads to the appropriate current input jack (µA/mA or 10A) and COM.
- AVVERTIMENTO: Connect the meter in series with the circuit. Never connect the meter in parallel to a voltage source when in current mode, as this can blow the fuse or damage the meter.
5.3. Misurazione della resistenza (Ω)
- Impostare il selettore su Ω.
- Connect test leads to V/Ω/Hz/CAP/°C and COM.
- Prima di misurare la resistenza, assicurarsi che il circuito o il componente siano disattivati.
- Collegare i puntali di prova al componente.
5.4. Capacitance Measurement (CAP)
- Set the rotary switch to CAP.
- Connect test leads to V/Ω/Hz/CAP/°C and COM.
- Ensure capacitors are fully discharged before measurement to prevent damage to the meter.
- Collegare i puntali di prova al condensatore.
5.5. Misurazione della frequenza (Hz)
- Impostare il selettore rotativo su Hz.
- Connect test leads to V/Ω/Hz/CAP/°C and COM.
- Collegare i puntali di prova alla sorgente del segnale.
5.6. Temperature Measurement (°C)
- Set the rotary switch to °C.
- Connect the K-type temperature sensor to the temperature adapter, then insert the adapter into the V/Ω/Hz/CAP/°C and COM jacks.
- Posizionare la punta del sensore di temperatura sull'oggetto di cui si desidera misurare la temperatura o nelle sue vicinanze.
5.7. Continuity Test and Diode Test
- Set the rotary switch to the continuity/diode symbol.
- Connect test leads to V/Ω/Hz/CAP/°C and COM.
- For continuity, touch the test leads across the circuit. A buzzer will sound for continuity.
- For diode test, connect the red lead to the anode and the black lead to the cathode of the diode. The forward voltagVerrà visualizzata una goccia. Invertire i cavi per verificare la presenza di un circuito aperto.
6. Manutenzione
6.1. Pulizia
Pulisci il contatore con l'adamp panno e detergente delicato. Non utilizzare abrasivi o solventi. Assicurarsi che il misuratore sia asciutto prima dell'uso.
6.2. Sostituzione della batteria
When the low battery indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries as described in Section 4.1. Use only 1.5V AAA batteries.
6.3. Sostituzione del fusibile
If the current measurement function fails, the fuse may need replacement. Refer to the full instruction manual for detailed fuse replacement procedures. Always use fuses of the specified type and rating.
7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
- Nessun display o letture irregolari: Check battery charge and ensure proper battery installation.
- Nessuna misurazione attuale: Check the fuse. Ensure test leads are connected to the correct input jacks and in series with the circuit.
- Letture errate: Verify the correct function and range are selected. Ensure test leads are properly connected and not damaged.
- Viene visualizzato "OL" o "OVER": The measured value exceeds the selected range. Select a higher range or ensure the input is within the meter's capabilities.
