3.2 Повезивање мерних каблова

  • Always connect the black test lead to the "COM" jack.
  • Фор волtage, resistance, diode, continuity, and current up to 500mA measurements, connect the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack.
  • For current measurements between 500mA and 10A, connect the red test lead to the "10A" jack.
  • Ensure connections are firm and secure before taking any measurements.

4. Упутство за употребу

Before taking any measurement, ensure the test leads are correctly connected and the rotary switch is set to the appropriate function and range. Always start with a higher range if the expected value is unknown to prevent overloading the meter.

4.1 ДЦ Волtage Measurement (V--)

  1. Поставите ротациони прекидач на жељену јачину једносмерне струјеtage (V--) range (e.g., 500V, 200V, 20V, 2000mV, 200mV).
  2. Connect the black test lead to the "COM" jack and the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack.
  3. Connect the test probes across the component or circuit to be measured, observing polarity.
  4. Прочитајте књtage value on the digital display. If a negative sign appears, it indicates reversed polarity.

4.2 АЦ ВолtagМерење (V~)

  1. Поставите ротациони прекидач на жељену јачину наизменичне струјеtage (V~) range (e.g., 500V, 200V).
  2. Connect the black test lead to the "COM" jack and the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack.
  3. Повежите мерне сонде преко AC волтаtagе извор.
  4. Прочитајте књtagе вредност на дигиталном дисплеју.

4.3 DC Current Measurement (A--)

  1. ВАЖНО: Current measurements require the meter to be connected in series with the circuit. Ensure the circuit is de-energized before connecting the meter.
  2. Set the rotary switch to the desired DC Current (A--) range (e.g., 10A, 200mA, 20mA, 2000µA, 200µA).
  3. For ranges up to 200mA, connect the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack. For the 10A range, connect the red test lead to the "10A" jack. The black lead always connects to "COM".
  4. Open the circuit where current is to be measured and insert the meter in series.
  5. Apply power to the circuit and read the current value on the display.
  6. After measurement, disconnect power, remove the meter, and restore the circuit.

4.4 Мерење отпора (Ω)

  1. УПОЗОРЕЊЕ: Ensure the circuit or component under test is completely de-energized before measuring resistance.
  2. Set the rotary switch to the desired Resistance (Ω) range (e.g., 20000kΩ, 2000kΩ, 200kΩ, 20kΩ, 2000Ω, 200Ω).
  3. Connect the black test lead to "COM" and the red test lead to "VΩmA".
  4. Повежите тест сонде преко компоненте.
  5. Очитајте вредност отпора на дисплеју.

4.5 Тест диода (→|→)

  1. Поставите ротациони прекидач у положај за тестирање диода.
  2. Connect the black test lead to "COM" and the red test lead to "VΩmA".
  3. Connect the red probe to the anode and the black probe to the cathode of the diode. The display should show a forward voltage drop (typically 0.5V to 0.8V for silicon diodes).
  4. Reverse the probes. The display should show "OL" (Overload) for a good diode. If it shows a reading in both directions or "OL" in both directions, the diode is likely faulty.

4.6 Тест континуитета (•))))

  1. Set the rotary switch to the Continuity Test position.
  2. Connect the black test lead to "COM" and the red test lead to "VΩmA".
  3. Повежите тестне сонде преко кола или компоненте.
  4. If the resistance is below approximately 50Ω (this value can vary), the buzzer will sound, indicating continuity. The display will also show the resistance value.

6. Одржавање

6.1 Чишћење

Обришите мерач casinг са огласомamp крпом и благим детерџентом. Не користите абразивна средства или раствараче. Уверите се да је мерач потпуно сув пре употребе.

6.2 Замена батерије

When the low battery indicator appears on the display, replace the two AAA batteries as described in Section 3.1. Remove batteries if the meter is not used for an extended period to prevent leakage.

6.3 Замена осигурача

If the current measurement function stops working, the fuse may be blown. Fuses are located inside the meter. Fuse specifications are 500mA/500V for the VΩmA input and 10A/500V for the 10A input. Fuse replacement should only be performed by qualified personnel. Always replace with fuses of the exact same type and rating.

КСНУМКС. Решавање проблема

  • Без приказа: Проверите постављање батерија и уверите се да батерије нису празне.
  • "OL" on Display: Indicates an overload or out-of-range measurement. Select a higher range or check for an open circuit (for continuity/resistance).
  • Нетачна очитавања:
    • Ensure test leads are correctly connected to the appropriate jacks.
    • Verify the rotary switch is set to the correct function and range.
    • Check if the batteries are low.
    • Ensure the component or circuit is properly isolated for resistance/diode tests.
  • Тренутно мерење не ради: Check the fuse for the relevant current input (500mA or 10A).

8. Безбедносне информације

This multimeter is designed to meet safety standards for electrical measuring instruments. However, improper use can result in electric shock or damage to the meter. Always follow these safety guidelines:

  • Немојте примењивати више од оцењеног волtage between the input terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
  • Будите изузетно опрезни када радите са волtagизнад 30V AC RMS, 42V вршне струје или 60V DC. Ови напониtagпредстављају опасност од удара.
  • Увек искључите напајање кола и испразните све високонапонскеtagкондензаторе пре мерења отпора или континуитета.
  • Ensure the rotary switch is in the correct position for the measurement being performed.
  • Never measure current on a circuit with power applied if the test leads are connected to the "VΩmA" or "10A" jacks and the rotary switch is set to a voltage or resistance function. This can blow the fuse or damage the meter.
  • Не користите мерач ако изгледа оштећено или ако су мерни каблови оштећени.
  • Adhere to the CAT II 500V and CAT III 300V safety ratings. CAT III is for measurements in building installation (e.g., distribution boards, circuit breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches, socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, e.g., stationary motors with permanent connection to the fixed installation). CAT II is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to the low-voltage installation (e.g., household appliances, portable tools).
  • Keep fingers behind the probe barriers during measurements.
