[. . . ] Before beginning all unknown measurements, set meter to the highest range possible. Page 2 WARNING!Before breaking a circuit for testing, turn off the power to the circuit. When disconnecting from a circuit, disconnect the hot lead first, then the common lead. Disconnect the meter from the circuit before turning off any indicator, including motors, transformers, and solenoids.

The diode test function allows measurements of forward and reverse bias across diodes and transistor junctions. Turn off power to the device or circuit that is being tested and discharge all capacitors. Plug the leads into the meter inputs as indicated in the above diagram. Select the diode function on the meter.

Plug the test leads into the meter inputs as indicated in the diagram above. If the beeper sounds, the circuit is complete. To Measure Current: Current is measured in amps. Do not attempt to measure current in circuits capable of delivering greater than 600V. Connect the test leads into the meter inputs as indicated in the diagram above. Measure the Current.

Note: The displayed numerical value has no meaning when performing this procedure. Plug the test leads into the meter inputs labeled as R, S, T in the diagram above. Attach the three test leads to each of the 3-Phase cables in any order. If all three supply lines have power, the meter will indicate a R, S, T (in the upper left corner). Frequency is measured in Hertz: Do not attempt to measure frequency in circuits capable of delivering greater than 600V. Plug test leads into the meter inputs as indicated in the diagram above. Measure the frequency. Page 13 Page 14 Phase Rotation (continued) 7. If the meter indicates "OK" in the display (upper left-hand side), a. Label each phase cable as R, S, or T following the test lead connections to the labeled meter inputs. If the meter indicates an message in the display (lower left-hand side), the phase rotation is counter-clockwise. [. . . ] Inspect the test leads for breaks or cracks, and ensure that the test leads are inserted fully into the input connectors. If problem persists, meter should be inspected by a qualified service person.
