Uvod
The FLIR VT8-600 is a high-quality voltage, continuity, and current tester, ideal for electricians and service technicians who troubleshoot and verify electrical installations or systems within light commercial and industrial facilities. The optimized open-jaw design of the VT8-600 allows it to access tight spaces and reliably measure large-diameter cables. Comprehensive measurement features make the FLIR VT8-600 a versatile tool – one meter can get the job done. Carry the compact tester in your pocket to be ready at any moment for easy troubleshooting and repair. It features a CAT III-600V/CAT IV-300V safety rating and a measurement range of 100A/600V.
Nastavitev
1. Namestitev baterije
The FLIR VT8-600 requires 2 AA batteries for operation, which are included with the device. To install or replace batteries:
- Poiščite pokrov predalčka za baterije na zadnji strani enote.
- Use a suitable tool (e.g., a small screwdriver) to open the battery compartment.
- Vstavite 2 baterije AA in pazite na pravilno polarnost (+/-), kot je označeno v predalu.
- Varno zaprite pokrov prostora za baterije.
2. Priključitev merilnih vodnikov
Za meritve, ki zahtevajo merilne kable (npr. voltage, resistance, continuity, capacitance), connect the leads to the appropriate input jacks on the bottom of the device.
- Črni merilni kabel vstavite v vtičnico 'COM' (common).
- Insert the red test lead into the 'VΩ' jack for voltage, resistance, continuity, and capacitance measurements.

Navodila za uporabo
The FLIR VT8-600 features a rotary dial for mode selection and dedicated buttons for additional functions.
1. Vklop/izklop in izbira načina
Turn the rotary dial to the desired measurement function to power on the device. Turn the dial to 'OFF' to power off the device.
2. Merilne funkcije
- AC/DC Voltage Measurement (V∼ / V—)
Izberite zvtage mode on the rotary dial. Connect the test leads in parallel to the circuit or component to measure voltage. The device supports up to 600V. - AC/DC Current Measurement (A∼ / A—)
Select the current mode on the rotary dial. Use the open jaw to clamp around a single conductor to measure current. The device supports up to 100A. Ensure the conductor is centered within the jaw for accurate readings.

- Resistance Measurement (Ω)
Select the resistance mode. Connect the test leads across the component when it is de-energized. - Continuity Test (⚡)
Select the continuity mode. Place the test leads across the circuit or component. A continuous tone indicates continuity. - Capacitance Measurement (‡)
Select the capacitance mode. Connect the test leads across the capacitor. Ensure the capacitor is discharged before testing.
3. Posebne funkcije
- Gumb MODE: Toggles between AC and DC measurements or other sub-functions within a mode.
- REL/ZERO Button: Used for relative measurements or to zero out the display for current measurements.
- Gumb HOLD: Zamrzne trenutno odčitavanje na zaslonu. Za sprostitev pritisnite znova.
- Gumb za osvetlitev ozadja/delovno luč: Activates the display backlight and the integrated LED work light for improved visibility in dimly lit environments.

Vzdrževanje
Čiščenje
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your FLIR VT8-600, follow these cleaning guidelines:
- Zunanjost naprave obrišite s čisto,amp krpo. Ne uporabljajte abrazivnih čistil ali topil.
- Ensure the device is powered off and disconnected from any electrical circuits before cleaning.
- Keep the display clean and free from dust or smudges for clear readings.
Zamenjava baterije
Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Refer to the 'Battery Installation' section under Setup for detailed instructions.
Shranjevanje
When not in use, store the FLIR VT8-600 in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
Odpravljanje težav
If you encounter issues with your FLIR VT8-600, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Težava | Možen vzrok | rešitev |
|---|---|---|
| Naprava se ne vklopi. | Prazne ali nepravilno vstavljene baterije. | Preverite polarnost baterij ali zamenjajte baterije. |
| Netočni odčitki. | Incorrect mode selected; poor test lead connection; external interference. | Ensure correct mode is selected. Re-seat test leads. Move away from strong electromagnetic fields. |
| Brez tona kontinuitete. | Open circuit; faulty test leads. | Verify the circuit is closed. Check test leads for damage or replace them. |
| Zaslon je zatemnjen ali utripa. | Nizka baterija. | Zamenjajte baterije. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact FLIR customer support.
