4.3 DC Current Measurement (A--)

1. PENTING: Current measurements require the meter to be connected in series with the circuit. Ensure the circuit is de-energized before connecting the meter.
2. Set the rotary switch to the desired DC Current (A--) range (e.g., 10A, 200mA, 20mA, 2000µA, 200µA).
3. For ranges up to 200mA, connect the red test lead to the "VΩmA" jack. For the 10A range, connect the red test lead to the "10A" jack. The black lead always connects to "COM".
4. Open the circuit where current is to be measured and insert the meter in series.
5. Pasangkeun daya ka sirkuit sareng baca nilai ayeuna dina tampilan.
6. After measurement, disconnect power, remove the meter, and restore the circuit.

4.4 Pangukuran Résistansi (Ω)

1. PERHATOSAN: Ensure the circuit or component under test is completely de-energized before measuring resistance.
2. Set the rotary switch to the desired Resistance (Ω) range (e.g., 20000kΩ, 2000kΩ, 200kΩ, 20kΩ, 2000Ω, 200Ω).
3. Connect the black test lead to "COM" and the red test lead to "VΩmA".

4.5 Uji Dioda (→|→)

1. Set the rotary switch to the Diode Test position.
2. Connect the black test lead to "COM" and the red test lead to "VΩmA".
3. Connect the red probe to the anode and the black probe to the cathode of the diode. The display should show a forward voltage drop (typically 0.5V to 0.8V for silicon diodes).
4. Reverse the probes. The display should show "OL" (Overload) for a good diode. If it shows a reading in both directions or "OL" in both directions, the diode is likely faulty.

4.6 Uji Kontinuitas (•))))

1. Set the rotary switch to the Continuity Test position.
