6. Nastavitev

6.1. Namestitev baterije

1. Prepričajte se, da je multimeter izklopljen.
2. Poiščite pokrov predalčka za baterije na zadnji strani merilnika.
3. Odvijte pritrdilni vijak (vijake) in odstranite pokrov.
4. Insert a new 9V battery, observing correct polarity.
5. Namestite pokrov in ga pritrdite z vijakom(-i).

Ko je treba zamenjati baterijo, se na zaslonu prikaže indikator nizke napolnjenosti baterije.

6.2. Priključitev merilnih vodnikov

Connect the test leads to the appropriate input jacks:

• Črni testni kabel vstavite v COM (navadni) priključek.
• Za večino meritev (Voltage, Resistance, Diode, Continuity, mA Current), insert the red test lead into the VΩmA jack.
• Za meritve visokega toka (do 10 A) vstavite rdečo merilno vez v 10A jack.

7. Navodila za uporabo

Before making any measurement, ensure the test leads are correctly connected and the function switch is set to the desired range.

7.1. AC/DC zvtage Merjenje

1. Set the function switch to the desired ACV (~) or DCV (---) range (e.g., 200V, 600V).
2. Connect the red test lead to the VΩmA jack and the black test lead to the COM jack.
3. Dotaknite se merilnih sond točk vezja, kjer je voltage je treba izmeriti.
4. Preberite zvtage vrednost na LCD -prikazovalniku.

7.2. Merjenje AC/DC toka

Pozor: Never attempt to measure current on a circuit with voltage present across the current terminals. This can blow the fuse or damage the meter.

1. Izklopite napajanje vezja.
2. Set the function switch to the desired ACA (~) or DCA (---) range (e.g., 200mA, 10A).
3. Connect the red test lead to the appropriate current jack (VΩmA for mA, 10A for 10A) and the black test lead to the COM jack.
4. Odprite tokokrog, kjer želite izmeriti tok, in merilnik priključite zaporedno.
5. Priklopite napajanje na vezje in odčitajte trenutno vrednost na LCD-prikazovalniku.

7.3. Merjenje upora

1. Prepričajte se, da je tokokrog ali komponenta brez napetosti.
2. Set the function switch to the desired Resistance (Ω) range (e.g., 200Ω, 20kΩ).
3. Connect the red test lead to the VΩmA jack and the black test lead to the COM jack.
4. Z merilnimi sondami se dotaknite komponente ali vezja, ki ga želite izmeriti.
5. Odčitajte vrednost upora na LCD-prikazovalniku.
