6.1. Measuring DC Voltage
WARNING!
Do not try to measure a voltage greater than 1000 Volts DC.
Since it may damage your meter and expose yourself to a
servere shock hazard.
Follow these steps to measure DC voltage:
1. Set the rotary selector to the desired position and the range
as required for the voltage level to be measured. If you do
not know the voltage level, start with the rotary selector set
to the highest voltage position and reduce the setting as
needed to get a reading.
2. Plug the black test lead into the meter's COM terminal and
the red test lead into the V/Ω terminal.
3. Connect the test leads to the DC voltage source you want to
measure.
Notes:
* If polarity is negative, - appears on the left of display.
* For the most accurate measurement, select the lowest
possible voltage range without getting an overload reading.
6.2. Measuring AC Voltage
Warning!
Do not try to measure a voltage greater than 750 Volts AC since
it may damage your meter and expose yourself to a severe
shock hazard.
Follow these steps to measure AC voltage:
1. Set the rotary selector to the desired position. Select the
range as required for the voltage level to be measured. If
you do not know the voltage level, start with the rotary
selector set to the highest voltage position and reduce the
setting as needed to get a reading.
2. Press FUNC-button (7) to select AC.
