5 Operation an sl at io n Note Before operating the device, you must read, understand, and follow all instructions, dangers, warnings, cautions, and notes. Note When the meter is not in use, the function switch should be set to the position. Note When connecting the probe leads to the device under test, connect the negative lead before connecting the positive lead. When removing the probe leads, remove the positive lead before removing the negative lead.
5 Operation • If the function switch is set to the position, the meter attempts to determine if the device under test is a resistor, capacitor, or diode. an sl at io n Auto select mode is the default mode of operation. When a new function is selected with the function switch, the starting mode is Auto select and the cator is displayed. To enter Manual select mode, press the indi- button. To manually select the op- button repeatedly.
5 Operation 5. 6. For stabilized voltage measurements, place a low-impedance load across the probe inputs. Connect the probe leads in parallel to the part under test. Read the voltage value on the display. 5.5 Resistance measurements WARNING an sl at io n 4.

Choose the variable that you want to use (voltage, current, resistance, etc.). Results from the meter will now automatically be displayed in the result table in the top left corner of the IR camera screen.
6 Maintenance 6.1 Cleaning and storage an sl at io n Clean the meter with a damp cloth and mild detergent; do not use abrasives or solvents. If the meter is not to be used for an extended period, remove the batteries and store them separately. 6.2 Battery replacement 1. 2. 3. 4. To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the meter if connected to a circuit, remove the probe/thermocouple leads from the terminals, and set the function switch to the position before attempting to replace the batteries.
