WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

This instrument is EN61010-1 certiﬁed for

Installation Category II (600 V) and Category

III (300 V). It is recommended for use with

local level power distribution, appliances,

•

6

portable equipment, etc, where only smaller

transient overvoltages may occur, and not

for primary supply lines, overhead lines and

cable systems.

Do not exceed the maximum overload limits

per function (see speciﬁcations) nor the

limits marked on the instrument itself.

Do not change the position of the Function/

Range Switch while the HOLD feature is

enabled. Erroneous readings will result.

Exercise extreme caution when: measuring

voltage >20 V // servicing CRT equipment.

Inspect DMM, test leads and accessories

before every use. Do not use any damaged

part.

Never ground yourself when taking

measurements. Do not touch exposed circuit

elements or probe tips.

Do not operate instrument in an explosive

atmosphere.

Unpacking and Inspection

Your shipping carton should include:

1 DM78C Digital pocket meter

1 Protective carrying case

1 Users manual

2 L1154F or LR-44 batteries - installed

If any of these items are damaged or missing,

return the complete package to the place of

purchase for an exchange.

OPERATION

Beeper

Note: The beeper sounds for function change,

Range Lock, Range Hold, and continuity.

Ranging: The meter defaults to autoranging

when turned on, and selects the range

automatically. For Manual Ranging: press

“Range Lock” Button to hold selected range (

on the display). Pressing “Range Lock” again

steps to next range. Hold button for 2 sec. to

return to Autorange mode.

Data Hold: Press the “Data Hold” Button to

turn on (“H” displayed) and off the function.

Last reading is held on the display. Press “H”

button again to release and display present

readings.

Selector Switch: When the Selector Switch is

in the 15* position, press the “Function

Select” Button for resistance (1) continuity

test (1 and 5), or diode test (*). When the

Selector Switch is in VOLT position, press the

“Function Select” Button to select AC voltage

or DC voltage.

Auto Power Off (APO): Meter will turn off after

10 minutes of non-use. APO can be disabled by

pressing and holding the (RANGE) button while

moving the function switch from off to desired

function.

AC Voltage Measurement

: Warning

For safety, do not attempt to measure voltages

greater than 600 VAC.

Set Selector Switch to VOLT.

Push Function Button so that “AC” appears

in display.

Connect test leads to circuit. Connection

must be in parallel with circuit being

measured.

Read value on display.

DC Voltage Measurement

: Warning

For safety, do not attempt to measure voltages

greater than 600 VDC.

Set function switch to VOLT.

If “AC” appears in display, press Function

Button to select DC.

Connect black test lead to negative side

of circuit being measured and red lead to

positive side.

Read value on display.

Resistance Measurement

: Warning

Before taking any in-circuit resistance measure-

ments, remove power to the circuit being test-

ed and discharge all capacitors in the circuit.

Set Selector Switch to15*.

Press Function Button until ‘OL’ and M1

appear on the display.

Connect the test leads to circuit or

component.

Read value on the display.

Diode Test

The diode should be disconnected from

circuit. Required forward voltage must be

<1 V.

Set Selector Switch to15*.

Press Function Button until *appears in

display.

Connect red test lead to anode and black

test lead to cathode of the diode. A good

diode has a forward voltage drop of about

0.6 V. An open or reverse biased diode will

read ‘OL’.

Continuity Test

Set the Selector Switch to 15*

Press Function Button until 1appears in

display.

Connect test leads to the circuit. Beeper

sounds when resistance is <35 1

The display will show the resistance or ‘OL’

for an open circuit.

MAINTENANCE

: Warning

To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the meter

from circuit and turn OFF the meter before

opening the case. Do not operate the meter

with open case.

Trouble Shooting

If the instrument fails to operate, check

batteries and test leads etc., and replace as

necessary. Double check operating procedure as

described in this user’s manual. The voltage and

resistance measurement circuits are protected

by fusible resistors and a parallel high resistance

path. If the instrument voltage-resistance input

terminal has been subjected to high voltage

transients (caused by lightning or switching

surges in the system), the series fusible input

resistors will open like fuses and the voltmeter

will read approximately 85% of the actual value

and cause the resistance range to not work.

The meter voltage reading (approximately 15%

low) will let the user know that the meter has

been damaged, and the circuit under test is

active. Refer to the LIMITED WARRANTY section

for obtaining warranty or service.

Cleaning and Storage

Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth

and mild detergent; do not use abrasives or

solvents. If the meter is not to be used for

periods of longer than 60 days, remove the

battery and store separately.

11

Battery Replacement

: Warning

Before attempting to replace the battery, ﬁrst

disconnect the test leads from any energized

circuit.

Power is supplied by two button-type batteries

(L1154F or IEC LR-44). “1” appears on the LCD

display when replacement is needed.

Set Function Switch to off.

Remove battery cover screw.

Slide off battery cover, note polarity, and

change batteries (Fig. 6).

Replace battery cover and screw.
