OPERATION

Preliminary Test lead check 
1.

Before each use of the instrument, visually inspect the test leads, prods
and crocodile clips to confirm that their condition is good, with no damaged
or broken insulation.

2. 

Check continuity of the test leads by firmly shorting the leads together
and read the test lead resistance. measurement directly from the display.

Backlight operation
1.

Turn the instrument backlight ‘On’ by selecting the 

position.

2.

When the backlight is activated, select the desired test position.

3.

On completion, select the ‘OFF’ position to de-activate the backlight and
conserve battery life. 

Continuity Testing
1.

Turn the instrument ‘On’ by selecting the 

range.

2.

If required, zero test lead resistance by firmly shorting both leads together,
wait for the reading to stabilise and press the test button. Display of the

symbol confirms lead zeroing. Note: Lead zeroing cancels each time

the instrument is switched off, or Auto shut off operates.

3.

Connect the test probes to the isolated circuit under test.

4.

The display shows the resistance value. (Maximum 99,9

)

5.

On completion switch to ‘OFF’ position. Alternatively auto shut off operates
after  5  minutes of instrument inactivity.

Continuity Beeper

On the 

position, a continuous beep note

sounds when the test leads make contact with resistance less than 5

Ω. Ι

f

contact is maintained, beeping ceases after a few seconds and the resistance
value is displayed. Resistance greater than 5

is indicated by an intermittent

beep note.
