Operating Features

High Voltage Warning (HI-V)
The meter indicates PPE when measuring > 36V AC on the VAC function and >50V
DC when on the VDC function.
Auto Power Off (APO) Feature
The meter automatically beeps 5 times and powers down after 15 minutes of
detecting no activity in any of the three following modes; Voltage Test, NCVT, or
Continuity.
LoZ
Low impedance measurements defeat the influence of ghost or stray voltages on
the displayed value which are often caused by induced voltages coupling from one
parallel conductor to the next as found when measuring one conductor in multiple
conductor circuits.
Caution - Use caution when using the LoZ function on equipment that may
be damaged by being connected to a low impedance source.
Backlight / Flashlight
Backlight and flashlight
are selectable to be
on in all functions.
Press and hold the button on the meter to turn the backlight/flashlight on
and off. A short press of the backlight button for less than 1 second will turn the
backlight on or off. A long press of more than 3 seconds will power the flashlight
on or off. The white backlight and flashlight will remain lit for about 5 minutes
before they automatically turn off to conserve battery power. Or turn the lights off by
pressing and holding the button again.
