5. OPERATION
5.1. MEASUREMENT
WARNING! Please read the manual carefully.
9 Performaself-diagnostictesttoinsuretheLCDandbuzzer
function properly.
9Please conform the equipment with a known voltage source.
9When the device is in use make sure hands are behind the probe
barrier.
WARNING!Astheequipmenthashigherimpedance(about
 300kΩ),capacitorandinductorvoltagemayindicate.
5.2. AC/ DC POLARITY MEASUREMENT (ON SECOND PROBE)
5.2.1. Connectingtwoprobestotwoportsofthevoltagesource(g.4).
5.2.2. Withoutpressinganybutton,thepolarityofAC/DC(24V-1000V)
will be indicated on the second test probe.
5.2.3. AC:bothpolaritylightsup.(+)DC:DC+lightsupand(-)DC:DC-
lights up.
5.2.4. Thedirectionofthemainprobewilldetermine(+)DCor(-)DC.If
main probe is on the positive port, DC+ lights up, and vice verse.
5.2.5. This function will be cancelled if either of the ON/OFF buttons
are pressed.
5.3. VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT
5.3.1. VOLTAGE AND POLARITY

display “DE-”.
5.4.2. Non-contact voltage indicator“”onthetoprightofthemainprobewilllightupandbuzzer 
 willsoundwhenthesensorisnearelectromagneticeldgreaterthan90VAC.
5.4.3. Press the “LIGHT/NON-CONTACT SENSING SWITCH” again to switch off the function.
5.4.4. This function will automatically switch off after 3 minutes.
5.5. CONTINUITY
WARNING! Make sure there is no live voltage in the circuit before testing continuity.
5.5.1. Connecting the two probes to the circuit to be tested, press both ‘ON/OFF SWITCH” on two
 probes,ifthecircuithascontinuity,allindicatorontheLCDwillash,andbuzzerwillsound.
WARNING! If there is continuity in the circuit, the instrument will perform a self-diagnostic test.
5.6. ILLUMINATION
5.6.1. Longpressandholdthe“LIGHT/NON-CONTACTVOLTAGESENSINGSWITCH”to 
switch on the illumination light.
WARNING! Illumination function and non-contact voltage sensing function share the
same button, be aware when using these two functions.
