4. Configuración

4.1. Instalación da batería

The DM200 is powered by batteries. To install or replace batteries:

1. Asegúrese de que o multímetro estea apagado.
2. Localice a tapa do compartimento da batería na parte traseira da unidade.
3. Desaparafuse o(s) parafuso(s) de suxeición e retire a tapa.
4. Insert new batteries, observing the correct polarity (+/-).
5. Replace the cover and secure it with the screw(s).

4.2. Conexión dos cables de proba

Connect the red test lead to the 'VΩmA' jack and the black test lead to the 'COM' jack for most voltage, resistance, and low current measurements. For high current (up to 10A) measurements, connect the red test lead to the '10A' jack and the black test lead to the 'COM' jack.

5. Instrucións de funcionamento

5.1. Acendido/apagado

Turn the rotary switch from the 'OFF' position to any desired function to power on the multimeter. To power off, turn the rotary switch back to the 'OFF' position.

5.2. Selección de funcións

Rotate the central dial to select the desired measurement function (e.g., DCV, ACV, DCA, Resistance, Diode, Continuity).

5.4. Medición AC Voltage (ACV)

1. Connect the red test lead to 'VΩmA' and the black test lead to 'COM'.
2. Set the rotary switch to the desired ACV range (e.g., 200V, 600V).
3. Conecte os cables de proba a través da tensión de CAtaga fonte a medir.
4. Le o voltago valor da pantalla LCD.

5.5. Medición da corrente continua (DC)

1. For low current (μA/mA): Connect the red test lead to 'VΩmA' and the black test lead to 'COM'.
2. For high current (10A): Connect the red test lead to '10A' and the black test lead to 'COM'.
3. Set the rotary switch to the desired DCA range (e.g., 200μA, 20mA, 200mA, 10A).
4. Open the circuit where current is to be measured and connect the multimeter in series with the load.
