Operation
The manual provides detailed instructions for operating the device, including how to measure current, frequency, and duty cycle. For current measurements, the meter must be connected in series with the load, and the function switch should be set to the desired range (A= for DC and A~ for AC). For measurements under 200 mA, the red test lead connects to the MA/UA jack, while for measurements above 200 mA, it connects to the 20 A jack. The black test lead always connects to the COM jack. Frequency or duty cycle measurements require setting the Function/Range switch to the desired Hz or DUTY % range, and connecting the test leads to the appropriate jacks. The manual also mentions a data hold function for freezing the display value during measurements.
