3.2.1 True RMS Zero Input Characteristic
3.2.1.1 For measuring non-sinusoidal wave signal,
uses true RMS measuring method, which has
less error than traditional average response
measuring method.
3.2.1.2 The true RMS meter can accurately measure
non-sinusoidal wave signal, but if it is in AC
function mode, when there is no signal to be
measured (input terminal short circuit in AC
voltage mode), clamp meter may show a

are normal. In the designated measurement
range, they will not affect the accuracy for
multimeter measuring AC.
3.2.1.3 The true RMS can be measured only when input
signal reaches a certain level. Therefore, the
measuring range of AC voltage and current
should be specified at 2% ~ 100% of full range.

display value can be stored in the memory as
reference value. When the user measures later, the
display value is the difference for input value minus
reference value. ie. REL (current reading)= Input
value - Reference value.
2) The relative value measurement can only be
performed in the manual mode.
1) In the process of measurement, if ambient light is too
dark to read, press B.L/HOLD key to open the

Note:
When battery voltage < 7.2V, the LCD displays “ ”
(undervoltage) symbol. When the user uses the
backlight, the battery voltage drops below 7.2 V, due to
high working current. The “ ”symbol may appear, and
measurement accuracy is not guaranteed. Contimue
to use the meter normally without using backlight.
Do not replace the battery until “ ” symbol shows
under normal cnditions.
4.8 Automatic Power-Off
1) If there is no operation during any 15 minutes after
turning the machine on, the meter will enter
suspended state, automatically powering off to save
the battery. Within 1 minute before shutdown, buzzer
will sound five times. The meter will then enter a
dormant state.
2) After automatic power-off, press FUNC key, the
meter will turn on again.
3) If the user holds FUNC key when powering on, it
will cancel automatic power-off function.
4.9 Measurement Preparation
1) Turn the transfer switch to turn on the power. When
battery voltage is low (about<7.2V), LCD displays
” symbol, Replace the battery.
2) “ ” symbol means that input voltage or current
should not be more than the specified value, which
is to protect the internal line from damage.
3) Place transfer switch to required measuring function
and range.
4) When connecting line, first connect the common
test line, then connect charged test line. When
removing line, remove charged test line first.
4.10 Current Measurement
Electric shock hazard.
Remove the probe from the meter before
measuring with current clamp.
Warning
1) Measuring switch is placed to position A. At this time,
the meter is in AC current measurement state.
Choose appropriate measuring range.
2) Hold the trigger, open clamp head, clip one lead of
measurement circuit to be tested in the clamp.
3) Read the current value on the LCD display.
Note:
1) Clamping two or more leads of circuit to be tested
simultaneously will not get the correct measuring
results.
2) To get accurate reading, connect the lead to be
tested at the center of current clamp.

4.11 Voltage Measurement
Electric shock hazard.
Pay special attention to avoid shock when
measuring high voltage.
Don't input voltage more than AC750 RMS.
Warning
1) Insert black probe to COM jack, insert red probe to
INPUT jack, choose appropriate measuring range.
2) Place transfer switch to AC voltage or position.
At this time, the meter is in the DC voltage
measurement state. To measure AC voltage, press
FUNC button to enter AC voltage measurement state.
3) Connect the probe with voltage source or both ends
of load in parallel for measurement.
4) Read the voltage on the LCD.
Note:
1) In the small voltage measuring range, the probe is
not connected with the circuit to be tested, and the
meter may have fluctuating readings, which is normal
and caused by the meter's high sensitivity. When the
meter is connected with the circuit to be tested, you
will get actual measured value.
2) In the relative measurement mode, automatic
measuring range is invalid.
3) “ ”indicates that maximum input voltage is 750V AC
or 1000V DC. Maximum input voltage at mode mV is
600mV DC or AC.
4) If the readings measured by the meter is more than
750V rms AC, it will send out "beep" alarm.

4.12 Frequency And Duty Ratio Measurement
Electric shock hazard.
Remove the probe from the meter before
measuring with current clamp.
Warning
(1) Measuring switch is placed to position A.
(2) Hold the trigger, open clamp head, clip one lead of
measurement circuit to be tested in the clamp.
(3) Press Hz/% key to switch to frequency measuring
state.
(4) Rad the current value on the LCD display.
(5) Pressing Hz/% again can enter duty ratio measuring
state.
1) Clamp head measuring frequency
(through AC current):
Note:
(1) Clamping two or more leads of circuit to be tested
simultaneously will not get the correct measuring
results.
(2) Frequency measurement range is 10Hz~1kHz. If the
frequency to be tested is less than 10Hz, or if
frequency is higher than 10 kHz, accuracy is not
guaranteed.
(3) Duty ratio measuring range is 10 ~ 95%.
(4) means that maximum input current is
1000A AC (RMS).

4.11 Voltage Measurement
Electric shock hazard.
Pay special attention to avoid shock when
measuring high voltage.
Don't input voltage more than AC750 RMS.
Warning
1) Insert black probe to COM jack, insert red probe to
INPUT jack, choose appropriate measuring range.
2) Place transfer switch to AC voltage or position.
At this time, the meter is in the DC voltage
measurement state. To measure AC voltage, press
FUNC button to enter AC voltage measurement state.
3) Connect the probe with voltage source or both ends
of load in parallel for measurement.
4) Read the voltage on the LCD.
Note:
1) In the small voltage measuring range, the probe is
not connected with the circuit to be tested, and the
meter may have fluctuating readings, which is normal
and caused by the meter's high sensitivity. When the
meter is connected with the circuit to be tested, you
will get actual measured value.
2) In the relative measurement mode, automatic
measuring range is invalid.
3) indicates that maximum input voltage is 750V AC
or 1000V DC. Maximum input voltage at mode mV is
600mV DC or AC.
4) If the readings measured by the meter is more than
750V rms AC, it will send out "beep" alarm.

4.17 NCV Measurement
1) Turn the meter to NCV mode.
2) Place the meter top close to the conductor. When
test voltage is greater than 110 Vac (RMS), when the
meter is close to the conductor, the meter induction
voltage indicator will turn on and the buzzer will give
an alternating high-low alarm sound.
1: Even there is no indication, voltage may exist still.
Don't use non-contact voltage detector to judge
whether there is voltage in the wire. Detection
operation could be affected by socket design,
insulation thickness, type and other factors.
2: When inputting voltage on the meter input terminal,
due to the existence of the induced voltage, voltage
induction indicator also may light.
3: External sources of interference (such as flashlight,
motor, etc.) may incorrectly trigger non-contact
voltage detection.
Note:
5. Maintenance
5.1 Replace Battery
Before opening the meter battery cover, remove
probe from the circuit to be measured to avoid
electric shock.
Warning
1) When the battery symbol appears, the battery
should be replaced immediately.
2) Unscrew the fastening screw of the battery cover
and remove the cover.
3) Replace battery.
4) Put the battery cover back as before.
The battery polarity can't be reversed.
Note:
5.2 Replace Probe
When replacing probe, replaceit with another
identical probe or one with the same level of
performance. The probe should be in good
condition. Probe level: 1000V, 10A.
Warning
If the probe is damaged, such as naked metal wire,
replace the probe.
