3.1 پیک کھولنا اور معائنہ کرنا

Carefully unpack the meter and its accessories. Verify that all items listed in the 'Included Components' section are present and undamaged. If any item is missing or damaged, contact your supplier immediately.

3.2 بیٹری کی تنصیب

The EX820A requires one (1) 9V battery (included). To install or replace the battery:

1. یقینی بنائیں کہ میٹر آف ہے۔
2. میٹر کے پچھلے حصے میں بیٹری کے کمپارٹمنٹ کور کو تلاش کریں۔
3. بیٹری کور کو محفوظ بنانے کے لیے سکریو ڈرایور کا استعمال کریں۔
4. Remove the cover and insert the 9V battery, observing correct polarity.
5. بیٹری کا احاطہ تبدیل کریں اور سکرو سخت کریں۔

3.3 ٹیسٹ لیڈز کو جوڑنا

جلد کے لیےtage, resistance, capacitance, frequency, diode, and continuity measurements, connect the supplied test leads:

• Insert the red test lead into the VΩHz+ input jack.
• بلیک ٹیسٹ لیڈ کو COM ان پٹ جیک میں داخل کریں۔

4. آپریٹنگ ہدایات

The EX820A features a rotary function switch to select the desired measurement mode. Press the 'MODE' button to cycle through functions within a single switch position (e.g., AC/DC voltagای، مزاحمت/تسلسل)۔

4.1 Measuring AC Current (Clamp)

1. روٹری سوئچ کو 'A~' پوزیشن پر سیٹ کریں۔
2. cl کھولیں۔amp jaws by pressing the jaw release trigger.
3. ایک واحد کنڈکٹر کو cl کے ساتھ منسلک کریں۔amp جبڑے یقینی بنائیں کہ جبڑے مکمل طور پر بند ہیں۔
4. ڈسپلے پر موجود AC کی کرنٹ ویلیو پڑھیں۔

4.4 LoZ (Low Impedance) Mode

The LoZ function is used to eliminate ghost voltages, which can cause misleading readings. When measuring voltage in circuits where ghost voltages are suspected, select the LoZ mode to provide a low impedance path that dissipates these stray voltages

1. Set the rotary switch to the 'V LoZ' position.
2. ٹیسٹ لیڈز کو سرکٹ سے جوڑیں۔
3. جلد پڑھیںtage. This reading will be more accurate in the presence of ghost voltages

4.5 لو پاس فلٹر (LPF)

The LPF function is designed for accurate measurements on variable frequency drives (VFDs) and other electrically noisy equipment. It filters out high-frequency noise that can distort True RMS readings.

1. Set the rotary switch to the 'A~' or 'V~' position.
2. Press the 'LPF' button to activate the Low Pass Filter. The LPF icon will appear on the display.
3. Proceed with your current or voltage پیمائش.

4.6 Inrush موجودہ پیمائش

The Inrush function captures the maximum current surge when a motor or other inductive load starts up. This is useful for diagnosing motor starting issues.

1. روٹری سوئچ کو 'A~' پوزیشن پر سیٹ کریں۔
2. Press the 'INRUSH' button. The meter will be ready to capture the inrush current.
3. cl لگائیں۔amp to the motor's power lead and start the motor. The meter will display the peak inrush current.

5 دیکھ بھال

5.1 صفائی

Wipe the meter with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents. Periodically clean the input jacks with a cotton swab and alcohol to ensure good contact.

5.2 بیٹری کی تبدیلی
