• The tester’s safety features may not protect the user if not used in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
• Check on a known live source within the rated AC voltage range of the tester before use to ensure it is
in working order.
• Insulation type and thickness, distance from the voltage source, shielded wires, and other factors may
effect reliable operation. Use other methods to verify live voltage, if there is any uncertainty.
• Do not use if the tester appears damaged or if it is not operating properly. If in doubt, replace the tester.
• Do not use on

• Use caution with voltages above 30 volts AC as a shock hazard may exist.
• Comply with all applicable safety codes. Use approved personal protective equipment when working
near live electrical circuits-particularly with regard to arc-flash potential.
• When measuring the optical fiber signal, try to keep the tester and the optical interface in the same
line, and try to be close to the optical fiber interface.
• Avoid using the meter around strong electromagnetic fields.
• Do not expose tester to extremes in temperature or high humidity.
Briefly press the ON/OFF button of the tester to start the machine, and the green LED of the tester
will light up quickly twice every 2 seconds, indicating that the tester is working in fiber mode and ready.
Press and hold the ON/OFF button of the tester for a long time to start the machine. The tester is in
silent mode. The green LED will light up quickly twice every 2 seconds, indicating that the tester is
working in fiber mode and ready.

beeps, the tester will automatically turn off.
After the tester is turned on, press the ON/OFF button again, the tester will beep twice and turn off
the test function.

Before using the tester, (1) make sure that the battery is sufficient and the tester can be turned on
normally. (2) use it within the test voltage range specified by the tester.
• Place the tip of the tester close to the AC voltage.
• If the AC voltage detected by the tester is greater than 50V, the red LED will switch to the normally lit
state, and the buzzer will make a quick sound.
If the AC voltage detected by the tester is less than 50V, the red LED will switch to the flashing state,
and the buzzer will not make a sound.
Note: When the instrument is in non-silent mode, the buzzer will sound.

6.Changing Batteries
• After switching the tester to the optical fiber detection mode, put the tip close to the optical fiber jack,
and keep the tester and the optical fiber plug on the same horizontal line. If the optical fiber signal is
not det
ect
ed, the t
es
t
er will flash the gr

onds, and
the buzzer
will not
sound. If the optical fiber signal is detected, the optical fiber indicator will switch to the normally open
state, and the buzzer will also ring all the time.
Note:The buzzer will sound when the instrument is in non-silent mode.
• When the tester is turned on and the battery power is lower than 2.4V and cannot operate reliably, the
tester will beep three times and the power indicator will go out, indicating that the tester is not running.
• Replace the battery to resume operation.
• To extend battery life, the tester will automatically turn off after approximately 5 minutes of inactivity.
• When the power is turned off, the tester will emit two beeps, all status indicators will go out, and the

NOTE: When batteries are loaded for the first time, please remove the white,rectangular security strip
before installing batteries.
NOTE:When replacing the battery, be sure to tighten the battery cover.
• Momentarily press the Flashlight button to turn the flashlight on or off.
• To conserve battery life, the flashlight will automatically turn off after approximately 5 minutes.
• The beeper will beep twic
e as the
flashlight turns off
.
• Press and hold the M Button about two seconds , the tester will turn off or turn on the worklight.
• The status of the worklight can only be changed by long press of the M Button.
• To prolong the battery life, the worklight will automatically turn off after about 5 minutes when no
signal is detected.
• If the "M" key is not released within 5 seconds after turning on the flashlight, the tester will judge it as
wrong operation and turn off the worklight .
1.Car efully unscr ew battery cap at the rear(flashlight end)of the tester.
2.Replace batteries with two AAA 1.5V batteries.Observe polarity.
3.Carefully align cover with tester as shown below.
4.Screw cover onto tester until it feels tight,Do not use excessive force.
5.Verify operation by using the tester on a known live AC voltage within the defined detection rang
of the tester.
Observe correct polarity
when installing batteries.
