Operating instruction

Power on the meter

Press       key to turn ON the power. The default mode is 
AUTO  LCR  smart  mode  and  the  default  test  frequency
is  1kHz.  When                key  is  pressed  during  power-on 
mode,  the  instrument  will  enter  power-off  mode.  The
LCD will show the "OFF" state before power off.

Function Descriptions

Press 

FUNC.

 key to select the following parameters

sequentially : AUTO LCR, L-Q, C-D, R, DCR.

1) Parameters setting

Parameter

MEANING

AUTO-LCR
L-Q

Auto LCR smart mode
Inductance measurement, the parameter 
on sub-display is quality factor Q

C-D

Capacitance measurement, the parameter
on sub-display is dissipation factor D.

R

Resistance measurement

DCR

DC resistance measurement mode

L/C/R  measurement  readings  can  be  positive  or 
negative. In C-D measurement, If the main parameter
is "-", the actual component being tested is inductive;
In L - Q measurement, if the main parameter is "-", the
actual  component  being  tested  is  capacitive;
Theoretically,  R  is  positive,  in  some  cases,  R  is  "-", 
which may be calibration error, please re-calibrate the 
instrument.

2. Auto LCR smart Mode

The default test mode is Auto LCR mode which could
check the type of impedance smartly.

If I 

q

 I < 11°, the Auto - R mode is selected. The 

parameter on sub - display is 

q

.

If  

q

  > 11°, the Auto - L mode is selected. The 

parameter on sub - display is Q.

If  

q

  < -11°, the Auto - C mode is selected. The 

parameter on sub - display is D.
If the C < 5pF, the parameter on sub-display is parallel
resistance Rp.

Note : In order to avoid damaging the instrument,
the  capacitance  requires  discharge  before 
measuring.

3. Frequency setting

Press 

FREQ

 key to select frequency value : 100/120/

1K/10K/100KHz.  The  LCR  impedance  scale  ranges 
are depended on the test frequency.

4. Data Hold

Press this key to hold the measurement data and 
press it again to resume the measurement.
