Capacity measurement:
1. Press the DMM button on the front of the unit. Then press R in the lower menu several times to switch
between resistance, diode and capacitance until C is highlighted.
2. Connect the black test lead to the COM socket and the red test lead to the V/Ω/C socket.
3. Connect the test probes to the (discharged) capacitor to be measured and read the measured value in
the digital display of the multimeter window.
Note: Measurements on a charged capacitor can damage the device. If you want to measure a
capacitance of less than 5nF, use the relative function before the measurement to improve the
measurement result.
Continuity test:
1. Press the DMM button on the front of the unit. Then press On-off in the lower menu.
2. Connect the black test lead to the COM socket and the red test lead to the V/Ω/C socket.
3. Connect the test probes to the (voltage-free) electrical conductor to be measured and read the
measured value in the digital display of the multimeter window. If the resistance value is below 50Ω,
the continuity signal sounds.
Note: Never perform a resistance measurement on a live conductor to avoid damaging the unit.
Other multimeter functions
Data Hold Mode:
You can freeze the measured value in the display.
1. Select Configure in the lower menu and then press Hold in the right menu as ON. The display shows
HOLD.
2. Press OFF to close the data storage again.
Information display:
1. Select Configure in the lower menu and then press Show Info in the right menu as ON. The
measurement display is shown.
2. Press OFF to switch off the multimeter's measuring display.
Auto or Manual Range Selection:
You can freeze the measured value in the display.
1. Select Configure in the lower menu and then press Hold in the right menu as ON. The display shows
HOLD.
2. Press OFF to close the data storage again.
Relative value measurements:
Sets the current measurement value to zero. The measurement is the difference value of the reference
value to the current measurement display.
1. Select Configure in the lower menu and then press Relative in the right menu. The display shows the
reference value with a ∆ as a sign and the main measurement display is reset to approx. 0.
In this mode, the current measured value = input measured value- reference measured value
2. Press OFF to close the relative value display again.
Note: This function is not available for resistance, diode or continuity test.
