Safety Precautions
Read and follow thesesafety precautions.
Never apply voltages to the meter that exceed the limits givenin the
specifications. Never apply more than 1000V DC or 750V RMS AC between
the input jacks and ground.
+Use extreme caution when working with voltages above 100V. Always
disconnect power from the circuit you are measuring before you connect test
leads to high-voltage points.
+Never connect the test leads to avoltage source when you set the meter's
function dial to H2/LOGIC, »)/D+, QAF mA/A/== or yA/A/=2.
+Always discharge any capacitors of the circuit under test before you attach
test leads.
+Always turn off power and disconnect the test leads from the circuit you are
testing before you replace the meter's battery or fuse. Never operate the meter
unless its back cover and battery cover are in place and secured.
+Never try to probe with both test leads at the same time or hold both test
leads in one hand.
+The testleads supplied with your meter are rated for 1000V. Use only test
leads ofthe same rating with the meter. You can order replacement leads
from your local RadioShack store.
+Donotuseafuse of brand or rating other than those specified here. Doing so
might damage your meter.
+Because many AC/DC sets have apotentially hot chassis, be sure the top
of your workbench and the floor underneath it are made of non-conductive
materials.
+Your multimeter is designed primarily to measure household AC voltages.
Because of the dangers inherent in measuring three-phase circuits, we
strongly recommend you do not use this meter to measure 3-phase, line-to-
line voltage. If you still want to, put on protective clothing—a face shield and
fireproof gloves and upper body protection is required before measuring. If
you do not have this protection, DO NOT MEASURE THESE CIRCUITS.
«Toreduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, do not expose this product to rain
or moisture. For indoor use only.
+When you are not using the meter, always turn it off.
+Ifthis equipment is used in amanner not specified in this user's guide, the
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
This meter is fully calibrated and tested. Under normal use, no further adjustment
should be necessary. If the meter requires repair, do nottry to adjust it yourself.
Take it to your local RadioShack store.

Measuring DC/AC Voltage
You can measure AC voltage superimposed on aDC voltage source bias while
ignoring the DC voltage, but never try to measure an AC voltage that is riding on a
DC source bias where the peak AC voltage exceeds 1000V with respect to earth
ground.
NN WARNING: Do NOT try to measure aDC voltage above 1000 volts oran AC
voltage above 750 volts RMS, and never clamp atest lead to ahot wire (usually red,
black, or blue in AC wiring circuits). Ifone lead is clamped to ahot wire and you touch
the meters other probe, you could receive an electric shock.
1. Setthe function dial to =2V/dBm. To measure AC voltage, press SELECT to
show dBm or avolts unit with ~ in front of the value. To measure DC voltage,
press SELECT to show avolts unit without ~in front of the value.
2. Ifthe meter is set to automatic range control, it automatically moves to the
range that gives the best reading.
To manually set the range, press RANGE ([NUI[§] disappears). Press RANGE
again to change the range (if necessary)
3. Power off the circuit under test. Touch the test leads to the circuit.
Or, to measure AC voltage superimposed on aDC voltage source bias,
connect a0.1 microfarad (uF)/100V mylar capacitor (not included) in series
with the positive terminal of the circuit and the red test lead, then power on
the circuit and read the AC voltage.
©Note:
When the meter is set to the 600mV range, OF continues to appear even after
you remove an over-range input signal. This is normal. Touch the test leads
together or connect them to acircuit to make OF disappear.

Measuring Capacitance
The capacitance-measuring circuit in your meter charges aconnected capacitor
to aspecific voltage level, then discharges the capacitor to alower voltage. The
meter measures the amount of time it takes to discharge the capacitor.
1. Power offthe circuit under test and discharge all capacitors.
2. Rotate the function dial to QA tand press SELECT until nF or pf appears
Attach the red test lead to the positive side of the capacitor and the black
test lead to the negative side. Or, remove one of the leads of the capacitor
fromits circuit and connect the test leads to the capacitor's matching
(positive or negative) terminals. The measured value appears.
Note:
The voltages applied across electrolytic capacitors affect their measured value.
Ameasurement taken with alow voltage will be lower than one taken with a
voltage near the capacitor’s voltage rating. Because this meter cannot use
high voltage to set the electrolyte, it cannot measure the absolute value of
capacitance.
+Forlow-value capacitors, the measurement might be very close to the meters
actual input capacitance. Use the meters relative feature to measure low
capacitance values. See “Taking Relative Measurements” on page 19.
+Capacitance measurement accuracy depends on the measurement method
and differs with different types of capacitors. The meter's measurement is for
reference only.
Checking Continuity
You can use the meter to check for shorted or open electrical circuits.
1. Power off the circuit under test and discharge all capacitors.
2. Rotate the function dial to 9k.
3. Press SELECT until") appears.
14

4. Touch the test leads across the circuit you want to measure.
Shrt appears and the buzzer sounds ifthe circuit resistance is less than
about 50 ohms (meaning the circuit is continuous or shorted).
Open appears and the meter's buzzer does not sound if the circuit resistance
is greater than about 50 ohms (meaning the circuit is not continuous).
Checking Diodes
You can check diodes, transistors, and other semiconductors for opens, shorts,
and normal operation, and determine the forward voltage and polarity for diodes.
Power off the circuit under test and discharge all capacitors.
2. Rotate the function dial to »)/$k.
3. Press SELECT. $F appears.
4. Connect the test leads to the device you want to check, or remove one
of the component leads from its circuit and connect the test leads to the
component. Note the first reading.
5. Reverse the test leads and note the second reading.
+If one reading shows avalue and the other is overrange (OF appears).
the device is good.
«If OF appears during both readings, the device is open.
+If both values are very small or zero, the device is shorted.
To check polarity of an unmarked diode:
Connect the test leads to the two sides of the diode. Measure and note the
voltage. Then, reverse the test leads, measure and note the second reading. The
side of the diode where the meter shows ahigher voltage using the red test lead
is the anode (+) side. The side of the diode where the meter shows OF using the
red test lead is the cathode (-)side.

Taking Relative Measurements
The meter allows you to take relative measurements for certain functions.
This allows you to measure very low resistance or identify closely matching
measurements.
This feature is not available for °C/°F, dBm, 9), ©, LOGIC, and hgg.
Using Zero Offset as Reference
The lowest scale on this meter is 400 ohms and the resolution is 1/10 of an ohm.
With lower resistances (for example, a1ohm resistor), the resistance in the
meter's test lead can produce areading error. The zero offset feature subtracts
any resistance from the meter leads.
1. Select the function (not °C/°F, dBm, 9), DF LOGIC, or hg).
2. Select the 600Q range.
3. Measure the zero offset. For capacitance, disconnect test leads. For other
functions, touch the test leads together.

measurements.
5. Take ameasurement. You will get the actual value for the measured
component.
19

Using aBaseline Reference
Abaseline reference allows you to compare componentsdirectly. For example,
you can compare resistors in aset by measuring one resistor as the baseline and
then measuring how closely the remaining resistors match the baseline.
1. Select the function (not °C/°F, dBm, 9), DF, LOGIC, or hg).
2. Press RANGE to select arange
3. Connect the test leads to the component whose measurement you want to
use as abaseline.
4. When you see the reading, press RELA. Rel Aappears and the meter sets
to manual range
5. Take ameasurement for another component. Rather than the actual
measurement value, the meter will display the component's variation from
the baseline (0.20. 0.01,-0.13,-0.02, etc.). If the measured value is lower
than the baseline, the meter will show anegative relative value. Areading of
0.00 indicates an exact match.
»To stop relative measurement, press RELA again or set the function dial to
another setting.
Note:
+Forthe most accurate reading, the temperature should be between 65°F and
83°F (18°C and 28°C), with amaximum of 75% relative humidity.
Relative and baseline measurements MUST always be in the manual ranging
mode.
+When measuring voltages in zero offset or baseline mode, the noise ofthe
environment you are measuring in could interfere with measurements.
Measuring Temperature
