Chengetedzo Yekuchengetedza
Always observe the following safety precautions when using the multimeter to prevent electric shock or personal injury, and to avoid damage to the meter or the equipment under test.
- Usashandise zvinopfuura zvakatemerwa voltage, as marked on the meter, between the terminals or between any terminal and ground.
- Shandisa kungwarira zvakanyanya paunenge uchishanda nevoltagiri pamusoro pe60V DC kana 30V AC RMS. Rakadaro voltages inokonzeresa njodzi.
- Before making resistance measurements, disconnect power to the circuit and discharge all high-voltaguye capacitors.
- Usashandise mita kana ikaita seyakakuvara kana kuti kana chinhu chinodzivirira kupisa chiri pamatambo ekuyedza chisina kunaka.
- Ensure the function switch is in the correct position for the measurement being taken.
- Keep fingers behind the finger guards on the test leads during use.

Gadzirira
Kusunungura uye Kuongorora
Carefully remove the multimeter and its accessories from the packaging. Inspect all components for any signs of damage. If any damage is found, contact customer support immediately.
Kuiswa kweBattery
Multimeter inoda bhatiri re9V (rinosanganisirwa). Kuti uise kana kutsiva bhatiri:
- Iva nechokwadi chekuti multimeter yadzimwa.
- Tsvaga chivharo chebhatiri kuseri kweyuniti.
- Shandisa sikurudhiraivha kubvisa sikurudhi inosunga chifukidziro.
- Gently lift the cover and connect the 9V battery to the battery clip, observing correct polarity.
- Isa bhatiri muchikamu chacho wotsiva chifukidziro chacho, uchichisunga nescrew.
Kubatanidza Miedzo Inotungamira
Insert the black test lead into the "COM" (common) jack and the red test lead into the "VΩmA" jack for voltage, resistance, and small current measurements. For AC current measurements using the clamp, test leads are not required unless simultaneous voltage readings are needed.
Operating Instruction
This section details how to perform various measurements with your Cen-Tech Digital Clamp-PaMultimeter.
Kuyera AC/DC Voltage
- Set the function switch to the desired ACV (Alternating Current Voltage) or DCV (Direct Current Voltage) range. If the voltage haizivikanwe, tanga nehukuru hwepamusoro uye udzikise kana zvichidikanwa.
- Connect the black test lead to the "COM" jack and the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack.
- Connect the test leads in parallel to the circuit or component you wish to measure.
- Verenga bhukutage kukosha pane LCD kuratidza.
Measuring AC Current (Clamp Basa)
- Set the function switch to the ACA (Alternating Current Amperes) range.
- Vhura clamp shaya nekudzvanya chibatiso.
- Enclose only one conductor of the circuit within the clamp shaya. Ita shuwa kuti shaya dzakavharwa zvizere.
- Verenga kukosha kwazvino paLCD kuratidza.
- Cherechedza: Iyo clamp measures current flowing through a single conductor. Do not clamp around multiple conductors (e.g., a power cord with both live and neutral wires) as the magnetic fields will cancel out, resulting in an inaccurate or zero reading.
Kuyera Kupokana
- Ensure the circuit or component is de-energized before measuring resistance. Disconnect power and discharge any capacitors.
- Set the function switch to the Ω (Ohms) range.
- Connect the black test lead to the "COM" jack and the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack.
- Connect the test leads across the component whose resistance you want to measure.
- Verenga kukosha kwekupikisa pane LCD kuratidza.
Diode Bvunzo
- Set the function switch to the diode symbol (usually shared with continuity or resistance).
- Connect the black test lead to the "COM" jack and the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack.
- Connect the red test lead to the anode and the black test lead to the cathode of the diode. A forward voltage drop (e.g., 0.5V to 0.8V for silicon diodes) should be displayed.
- Reverse the test leads. The display should show "OL" (Open Loop) for a good diode.
Maintenance
Kuchenesa
Pukuta nyaya yacho neadamp jira nesipo isina kunyorova. Usashandise zvinogumbura kana zvinonyungudutsa. Iva nechokwadi chekuti mita yacho yakaoma zvachose usati washandisa.
Kutsiviwa kwebhatiri
Refer to the "Battery Installation" section under Setup for instructions on replacing the 9V battery when the low battery indicator appears on the display.
Fuse Replacement
This model typically does not have user-replaceable fuses for current ranges measured by the clamp. For internal fuse replacement (if applicable for other functions), it is recommended to contact qualified service personnel.
Storage
When not in use for extended periods, remove the battery to prevent leakage and store the multimeter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Kugadzirisa matambudziko
| Dambudziko | Zvinogona Kukonzera | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Hapana kuratidza kana dim kuratidza | Rafa kana rakaderera bhatiri | Tsiva 9V bhatiri. |
| "OL" (Overload) inoratidzwa | Kuyerwa kunopfuura nzvimbo yakasarudzwa; Dunhu rakavhurika (rekudzivirira/kuenderera mberi) | Select a higher range; Check for open circuit in the component or test leads. |
| Kurava kusina kururama | Low battery; Incorrect range selected; External interference | Replace battery; Select appropriate range; Move away from strong electromagnetic fields. |
| No AC current reading with clamp | Clamping around multiple conductors (e.g., a power cord) | Ensure only a single conductor is within the clamp shaya. |
