9 Product description
The digital multimeter (multimeter) displays measurements on a digital display (display). The
multimeter features a digital 6000-count display (count = smallest display value). The multimeter
monitors the correct socket assignment. The multimeter beeps and displays a warning when
the sockets are not assigned correctly. This increases the operational safety of the multimeter
for the user.
The multimeter switches off automatically after a preset time if no buttons are pressed. This
protects the batteries and extends the battery life. The automatic shut-off feature can be preset
and disabled manually.
The multimeter can be used to take measurements up to CAT III 1000 V/CAT IV 600 V. It is
suitable for use in hobby and professional applications.
The multimeter can be placed on a level surface using the fold-out stand for better readability.
The battery and fuse compartment can only be opened when all test leads have been discon-
nected from the multimeter. When the battery and fuse compartment are open, the test leads
cannot be inserted into the measurement sockets. This is a built-in safety feature to protect
the user.
Control dial (E)
Individual measurement modes are selected using the control dial. Automatic range selec-
tion ("Autorange") is enabled in most measurement modes. The measurement range will be
selected automatically. The current measurement ranges must be set manually. Always start
current measurements with the largest measurement range, and then switch to a smaller range
if necessary.
The control dial features an indicator light that shows the setting position. Use the "SELECT"
button to switch to a sub-mode when the measurement mode has more than one function (e.g.
to switch from resistance measurement to diode test or continuity test or from AC to DC current).
The function is toggled with each press.
To switch the multimeter off, move the control dial to the "OFF" position. Always turn the multi-
meter off when it is not in use.
