Kuiswa kweBattery
The Greenlee DM-810A requires batteries for operation. Refer to the back of the meter for the battery compartment. Use a screwdriver to open the compartment, insert the specified batteries (typically AA or 9V, check the compartment label), observing correct polarity, and then securely close the cover.
Kubatanidza Miedzo Inotungamira
Always ensure test leads are properly connected before taking measurements.
- Isa mutema bvunzo lead mu COM jeki yekupinda (yakajairika).
- Insert the red test lead into the appropriate positive input jack based on the measurement you intend to make:
- Zve voltage, resistance, capacitance, or frequency, use the VΩHz jack.
- Yemamiriyoniampere or microampere current, use the mAμA jack.
- For ampere current, use the A jack.
- The meter's Beep-Jack feature will provide an audible and visible alert if the function selector is set to a current measurement (A or mA) but the test lead is incorrectly plugged into a voltage/resistance jack, or vice-versa. This helps prevent damage to the meter and ensures correct setup.

Kuyera AC/DC Voltage
- Set the function selector to V~ (AC Voltage) kana V- (DC Voltage). Use the SELECT button to toggle if both are on one position.
- Unganidza iyo nhema bvunzo inotungamira kune COM uye mhedzisiro yebvunzo tsvuku ku VΩHz.
- Batanidza ma test probes anoenderana nedunhu rese kana chikamu kuti chiyerwe.
- Verenga bhukutage kukosha pachiratidziro.
Kuyera AC/DC Yazvino
Zvakakosha: Kuyerwa kwazvino kunoda kuti mita ibatane nedunhu. Iva nechokwadi chekuti dunhu harina simba usati wabatanidza mita.
- De-energize dunhu.
- Set the function selector to A~ (AC Current) or A- (DC Current), or mA~ / mA-.
- Unganidza iyo nhema bvunzo inotungamira kune COM. Connect the red test lead to mAμA for small currents or A for larger currents (up to 10A). The Beep-Jack warning will activate if leads are in the wrong jacks for the selected function.
- Open the circuit where the current is to be measured and connect the meter in series.
- Simbisazve dunhu uye verenga kukosha kwazvino.
- De-energize the circuit before disconnecting the meter.
Measuring Resistance (Ω)
- De-energize the circuit or component.
- Set the function selector to Ω.
- Unganidza iyo nhema bvunzo inotungamira kune COM uye mhedzisiro yebvunzo tsvuku ku VΩHz.
