4.3 DC Current Measurement (A--)

1. IMPORTANTE: Current measurements require the meter to be connected in series with the circuit. Ensure the circuit is de-energized before connecting the meter.
2. Set the rotary switch to the desired DC Current (A--) range (e.g., 10A, 200mA, 20mA, 2000µA, 200µA).
3. For ranges up to 200mA, connect the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack. For the 10A range, connect the red test lead to the "10A" jack. The black lead always connects to "COM".
4. Open the circuit where current is to be measured and insert the meter in series.
5. Aplicar enerxía ao circuíto e ler o valor da corrente na pantalla.
6. After measurement, disconnect power, remove the meter, and restore the circuit.

4.4 Medición de resistencia (Ω)

1. AVISO: Ensure the circuit or component under test is completely de-energized before measuring resistance.
2. Set the rotary switch to the desired Resistance (Ω) range (e.g., 20000kΩ, 2000kΩ, 200kΩ, 20kΩ, 2000Ω, 200Ω).
3. Connect the black test lead to "COM" and the red test lead to "VΩmA".
4. Conecte as sondas de proba a través do compoñente.

• Sen visualización: Comprobe a instalación das baterías e asegúrese de que non estean esgotadas.
• "OL" na pantalla: Indicates an overload or out-of-range measurement. Select a higher range or check for an open circuit (for continuity/resistance).
• Lecturas incorrectas:
  • Ensure test leads are correctly connected to the appropriate jacks.
  • Verifique que o interruptor rotatorio estea axustado na función e no rango correctos.
  • Comprobe se as baterías están baixas.
  • Ensure the component or circuit is properly isolated for resistance/diode tests.
• A medición actual non funciona: Check the fuse for the relevant current input (500mA or 10A).

8. Información de seguridade

This multimeter is designed to meet safety standards for electrical measuring instruments. However, improper use can result in electric shock or damage to the meter. Always follow these safety guidelines:

• Non aplique máis que o voltage between the input terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
• Use extrema precaución ao traballar con voltagpor riba de 30 V CA RMS, 42 V pico ou 60 V CC. Estes voltagsupoñen un perigo de descarga.
• Desconecte sempre a alimentación do circuíto e descargue todas as cargas de alto volumetagcondensadores antes de medir a resistencia ou a continuidade.
• Ensure the rotary switch is in the correct position for the measurement being performed.
• Never measure current on a circuit with power applied if the test leads are connected to the "VΩmA" or "10A" jacks and the rotary switch is set to a voltage or resistance function. This can blow the fuse or damage the meter.
• Non empregue o medidor se parece estar danado ou se os cables de proba están danados.
• Adhere to the CAT II 500V and CAT III 300V safety ratings. CAT III is for measurements in building installation (e.g., distribution boards, circuit breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches, socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, e.g., stationary motors with permanent connection to the fixed installation). CAT II is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to the low-voltage installation (e.g., household appliances, portable tools).
• Manteña os dedos detrás das barreiras da sonda durante as medicións.
