www.sycelectronica.com.ar
To avoid any electric shock and/or damage to the meter, do
not attempt a voltage measurement if the voltage (valid
value) is 1,000V for DC current or 750V for AC current.
To avoid any electric shock and/or damage to the meter,
don't attempt to impose between any public terminal and
ground any voltage whose valid value is over 1,000V for DC
current or 750V for AC current.
The meter provides DC voltage measuring ranges as follows: 600.0mV,
6.000V, 60.00V, 600.0V and 1000V, and AC voltage measuring ranges:
6.000V, 60.00V, 600.0V and 750V.
Measurement of AC voltage or DC voltage
 Turn the rotary switch to the position ~V or V.
 Connect the test lead in black and test lead in red to COM input socket
and V input socket respectively.
 Use another two ends of the test lead to measure the voltage of the
circuit to be measured. (In parallel connection with the circuit to be
measured)
 Read the measured voltage value on LCD screen. When DC voltage
measurement is attempted, the display unit will show the voltage
polarity of the circuit connected to the pen-shaped meter in red.
Notes:
 Within the measuring range of DC voltage of 600mV and AC voltage of
6V, even if there is no input or no connection to the test lead, the meter
will display some information. In this situation, press short circuit “V-
” and “COM” terminal to reset the meter to zero.
 Within the AC voltage function, press the key "SEL" to measure the
frequency of the AC voltage source. Please refer to the relevant part for
frequency measurement.
 The value of the AC voltage measured with this meter is True RMS (root
mean square). These measurements are accurate for sine wave and
other waves (without DC offset), square wave, triangular wave and step
wave.

3.2.2 Electric resistance measurement


To avoid the meter or the measured equipment from damage,
do not attempt a resistance measurement unless the operator
has already cut off all power sources for the circuit to be

8
www.sycelectronica.com.ar

2. Connect the test lead in black and test lead in red to COM input
socket and V/input socket respectively.
3. Use another two ends of the test lead to measure the electric
resistance of the circuit to be measured.
4. Read the measured electric resistance value on LCD screen.
Notes:
 The measured value of the electric resistance of the circuit differs a
bit from the rated value of the electric resistance.
 To ensure measurement accuracy, in attempting a low resistance
measurement, first put two pen-shaped meters in short circuit and
capture the resistance reading of these short circuits. Then subtract
the aforesaid reading from the measured resistance.
 At 60Mposition, you have to wait a few seconds before the reading
grow stable. This is quite normal for a high resistance
measurement.
 When the meter is in open circuit, the display unit will show "OL" that
indicates the measured value is over the measuring range.

3.2.3 Diode test

V/input socket respectively.
3. Connect the test leads in black and in red to the positive and
negative poles of the diode to be tested respectively.
4. The meter displays the forward bias value of the diode to be tested. If

9
www.sycelectronica.com.ar
the polarity of the test lead is reversed, the meter will display "OL".
A normal diode still produces a forward voltage drop of 0.5V to 0.8V; the
reverse bias voltage reading depend on the variation in electric resistance of
other channels between two pen-shaped meters.

3.2.4 Beep continuity test

To avoid the meter or the measured equipment from damage,

socket and V/input socket respectively.
3. Use another two ends of the test lead to measure the resistance of
the circuit to be measured. If the measured distance is no more than
40Ω, the sensor LED (green indicator) will be on and the beeper will
sound continuously. If the measured resistance is between 40and
60Ω, the sensor LED (red indicator) will be on.

3.2.5 Capacitance measurement


To avoid the meter or the measured equipment from damage,
do not attempt a capacitance measurement unless the
operator has already cut off all power sources for the circuit
to be measured and fully discharged all high-voltage
capacitors. Use the DC voltage position to determine that all
capacitors have been discharged.
The measuring ranges for the capacitance of this meter are 6.000nF,
60.00nF, 600.0nF, 6.000F, 60.00F and 600.0F,6mF,60mF.
Measurement of capacitance:

of the capacitor to be measured, and capture the measured value
on LCD screen.

10
www.sycelectronica.com.ar
Note:
 The measurement of a large capacitance requires a given period of
stabilization of reading.
 To avoid damage to the meter, the measurement of a capacitor with
polarities requires much attention to its polarity.
3.2.6 hFE measurement

3.2.8 Current measurement


Do not attempt a measurement on the current in a circuit, if
when the voltage between the open-circuit voltage and the
ground is over 250V. If the fuse is blown at the moment of
measurement, you are likely to damage the meter or get
yourself hurt.
To avoid any damage to the meter or equipment to be
measured, do not attempt a current measurement unless you
have examined the meter's protective tube. In attempting a
measurement, you should use the correct input sockets,
11
www.sycelectronica.com.ar
function positions and measuring ranges. When a test lead is
inserted into the current input socket, do not put the other

60.00mA, 600.0mA and 20.00A; and AC current measuring ranges:
60.00mA, 600.0mA, and 20.00A.
Measurement of current:
1. Turn the rotary switch to the appropriate position.
2. Connect the test lead in black to COM input socket. Connect the test
lead in red to a mA input socket when the measured current is less
than 600mA; connect the test lead in red to a 10A input socket when
the measured current is 600mA~20A.
3. Disconnection of the circuit to be measured Connect the test lead
in black to the end of disconnected circuit (the voltage is lower) and
connect the test lead in red to the end of the disconnected circuit
(voltage is higher).
4. Connect the power to the circuit and capture the displayed reading.
If the display unit only shows "OL", it means the input is over the
selected measuring range. At this moment, turn the rotary switch to
a higher measuring range.

3.2.9 NCV test (non-contact voltage detection)


Turn the rotary switch to NCV position, and place the top of the meter
approach the conductor. If the meter detects the AC voltage, the indicators
for signal density (high, medium and low) will be on in accordance with the
detected density, while the beeper will sounds alarms at different
frequencies.
Note:
1: Voltage may still remain in the absence of any indication. The operator
shall not rely on non-contact voltage detector to check the presence of
voltage. The detection operation may be affected by various factors,
including socket design, insulation thickness and type.
2. When the voltage is input into the meter's input terminal, the voltage
sensor LED may be on as a result of induced voltage.
3. External sources of interference (like flashlight and motor) may trigger
non-contact voltage detection.

5. Meter maintenance
This section provides the basic information on maintenance, including the
descriptions about replacement of protective tubes and batteries. Do not
attempt the meter maintenance unless you are experienced in maintenance
and have read the information on calibration, performance test and
maintenance. .

5.1 General maintenance


To avoid any electric shock or damage to the meter, do not
attempt to clean the inside of the meter. You must remove
the line connecting a test lead to input signals, before
opening the case or battery cover.
You must regularly use damp cloth and a small quantity of detergent to

clean the meter's shell. Don't attempt the use of any abrading or chemical
solvent.
The dirty or damp input socket may affect reading.
Steps for cleaning input sockets:
 Disenable the meter and pull all test leads out of the input socket.
 Clean up all dirty substances on sockets.
 Use a new cotton ball with a detergent or lubricant to clean each socket,
because lubricant can prevent the socket vulnerable to dampness from
pollution.
5.2 Battery & fuse replacement
To avoid any electric shock or personal injury as a result
of incorrect reading, replace batteries once the symbol
“ ” appear on the display unit.
Only the designated fuse (600mA/1000V,10A/1000V
quick-acting fuse) can be used.
To avoid any electric shock or personal injury, don't
attempt to open the battery cover to replace batteries,
unless you have already powered off the device and
carried out an examination to ensure that the test lead has
been disconnected from the circuit to be measured.
Battery replacement:
1. Turn off the power of the meter.
2. Disconnect all test leads from the input socket.
3. Use a screwdriver to remove the screw of battery cover.
4. Take off the battery cover.
