CHECKING BATTERY VOLTAGE
Warning
To avoid possible electrical shock or damage to the meter, do not apply a
voltage greater than 600V between the meter’s and
COM jacks.
(1) Turn the rotary switch to the 9V or 1.5V position, corresponding to the
nominal voltage of the battery to be tested.
(2) Plug the black test lead into the COM jack and the red test lead into the
jack.
(3) Touch the red test lead to the battery’s anode (+ terminal) and the black test
lead to its cathode (– terminal). The battery’s voltage will appear on the
display.
USING THE NCV DETECTOR
To check whether a line, cable or AC outlet is “hot”
(energized), touch it with
the top of the meter or bring the top within 1/4 inch of it after moving the rotary
function switch to the NCV position. If the beeper sounds repeatedly and the
red LED at the top of the meter (Fig. 1, Callout 10) flashes rapidly, the line or
outlet is carrying at least 110VAC
RMS
.
USING THE DMM WTH THE ToolSmart
™
APP AND
AN APPLE iOS OR ANDROID SMARTPHONE
To stream measurements and calculations made by the DMM to an Apple iOS
or Android smartphone, begin by downloading the ToolSmart
™
app from the
iTunes Store or Google Play Store to your mobile device.
Once you have downloaded the app, install it. Then, pair the DMM and your
phone by activating Bluetooth on your phone and pressing the button on the
DMM.
A tutorial on the app explains how to save DMM measurements to your phone
and overlay them on photos of your project taken by the phone’s camera.
