XWWarnings and Precautions
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines:
•Use the Meter only as specified in this manual or the protection provided by
the Meter might be impaired.
•Do not use the Meter or test leads if they appear damaged, or if the Meter is
not operating properly.
•Always use proper terminals, switch position, and range for measurements.
•Verify the Meter's operation by measuring a known voltage. If in doubt, have
the Meter serviced.
•Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on Meter, between
terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
•Use caution with voltages above 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc.
These voltages pose a shock hazard.
•Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before
testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or capacitance.
•Do not use the Meter around explosive gas or vapor.
•When using test leads or probes, keep your fingers behind the finger
guards.
•Remove test leads from Meter before opening the battery door or Meter
case.
•Comply with local and national safety requirements when working in
hazardous locations.
•Use proper protective equipment, as required by local or national authorities
when working in hazardous areas.
•Avoid working alone.
•Use only the replacement fuse specified or the protection may be impaired.
•Check the test leads for continuity before use. Do not use if the readings are
high or noisy.
•Do not use the Auto-V LoZ function to measure voltages in circuits that
could be damaged by this function’s low input impedance (≈3 kΩ) (114, 116
and 117).

Notes:
[1] All ac ranges except Auto-V LoZ are specified from 1 % to 100 % of range. Auto-V LoZ is specified from 0.0 V. Because inputs below 1 % of range are
not specified, it is normal for this and other true-rms meters to display non-zero readings when the test leads are disconnected from a circuit or are
shorted together. For volts, crest factor of ≤3 at 4000 counts, decreasing linearly to 1.5 at full scale. For amps, crest factor of ≤3. AC volts is ac-
coupled. Auto-V LoZ, AC mV, and AC amps are dc-coupled.
[2] AC Volts Hz is ac-coupled and specified from 5 Hz to 50 kHz. AC Amps Hz is dc-coupled and specified from 45 Hz to 5 kHz.

maximum signal strength, in order to get the Meter’s beeper to sound continuously.
Refer to Figure 4 while performing the following steps.
1. Select the VoltAlert function, and verify that “Hi” is on the display. Verify that the beeper is silent and
the red LED is off.
2. Connect a double banana plug to the output voltage terminals of the calibrator (Fluke 5500A or
equivalent).
3. Set the calibrator output to 10 V at 60 Hz.
4. Hold the Meter so that the Meter’s top is vertically and horizontally centered and contacting the banana
plug’s Hi terminal. Verify that the Meter’s beeper is on continuously, and the red LED, at the top of the
display, lights up.
5. Place the calibrator in standby mode and verify that the beeper is now silent and the red LED is off.
6. Press the q(display should indicate ‘Lo’ range).
7. Set the calibrator’s output to 30 V at 60 Hz.

K(1), M(2), q(3), and g(4).
6. Press qto change the password. The Meter displays “” if the entered password is correct. If the
password is not correct, the Meter emits a double beep, displays “”, and the password must be
entered again. Repeat step 5.
7. Press the 4 buttons of the new password.
8. Press gto store the new password.
Restoring the Default Password
If the calibration password is forgotten, the default password (1234) can be manually restored using the following
steps:
XW Warning
To avoid electric shock or personal injury, remove the test leads and any input
signal before removing the Meter’s back case.
1. Remove the Meter’s back case. Leave the pca in the top case.
2. Apply 9.0V across the battery contacts (XBT1) + and (XBT2) – on the back of the PCA. See Figure 5.
3. Turn the rotary switch from OFF to any on position.
4. Short across the S7 CAL keypad on the back of the PCA. See Figure 5. The Meter should beep. The
default password is now restored.
5. Remove the 9.0V supply and replace the Meter’s back case.

Meter Buttons Used in the Calibration Steps
When performing the Calibration Adjustment Procedure, the Meter buttons behave as follows. This may be of help
determining why a calibration step is not accepted and for determining the input value without referring to Table 6.
Press and hold Kto show the measured value. The measured value is not calibrated so it may not match the
input value. This is normal.
Press and hold Mto display the required input value.
Press gto store the calibration value and advance to the next step. This button is also used to exit calibration
mode after the calibration adjustment sequence is complete.
Press Qto toggle the backlight on and off.
Calibration Adjustment Procedure
To adjust the Meter’s calibration, use the following steps. If the Meter is turned off before completion of the
adjustment procedure, the calibration constants are not changed.
1. While holding down K, turn the rotary switch from OFF to Ωfunction. The Meter should display
“ZCAL”.
2. Press gonce to see the calibration counter.
3. Press gagain to start the password entry. The Meter displays “”.
4. Press the 4 button password.
5. Press gto go to the first calibration step. The Meter displays “C01” if the password is correct. If the
password is not correct, the Meter emits a double beep, displays “” and the password must be
entered again. Repeat step 4.
6. Apply the input value listed for each calibration adjustment step. For each step, select the rotary switch
position and apply the input to the terminals as indicated in the Table 4.
Note
Some adjustment steps require additional wait time after the calibrator settles, as noted in
Table 6.
7. After each input value is applied, press gto accept the value and proceed to the next step (C02 and
so forth).
Notes
After pressing g, wait until the step number advances before changing the calibrator
source or turning the Meter’s rotary knob. Some adjustment steps can take up to several
seconds to execute before moving to the next step.
If the knob is not in the correct position for a given step, the meter will flash the unit
annunciators until the knob is put in a valid position. The keys that show the reading and
required input values are not allowed until the knob is correct.
Likewise, if the rotary switch is not in the correct position or the measured value is not within
the anticipated range of the input value, the Meter will emit a double beep and will not
continue to the next step when gis pressed.
8. After the final step, the display shows “End” to indicate that the calibration adjustment is complete.
Press gto return to meter mode.
