2 Safety Notes
The meter corresponds to all required direc-
tives of the EU and is therefore marked with
WARNING With this meter, dangerous volt-
ages can be measured. Particu-
lar attention should be paid
when measuring voltages equal
to or higher than 42 V!
1. Wear protective gloves to protect yourself
against electric shock.
2. When applying the test tips, make sure
that your fingers will be protected behind
the collars of the tips.
3. Never perform any measurements when
the meter or the test leads are damaged.
Always replace damaged test leads by
original test leads.
Please observe the following items in any
case:
G
If the sleeves (13) are used, the meter will
be protected according to IP 67 and will also
be suitable for outdoor applications. How-
ever, protect the meter against extreme
temperatures (admissible ambient tempera-
ture range -10 °C to +50 °C).
G
For cleaning the housing, only use a soft
cloth, slightly wet, if necessary; never use
chemicals or abrasive detergents.
G
No guarantee claims for the unit and no lia-
bility for any resulting personal damage or
material damage will be accepted if the rel-
evant safety regulations for handling volt-
ages equal to or higher than 42 V are not ob-
served, if the meter is used for other pur-
poses than originally intended, if it is not
correctly connected or operated, if it is over-
loaded or not repaired in an expert way.
If the meter is to be put out of opera-
tion definitively, take it to a local recy-
cling plant for a disposal which is not
harmful to the environment.
3 Applications
This digital multimeter DMT-4010RMS with au-
.
tomatic range selection is suited for profes-
sional applications. It features True RMS
measurement to ensure accurate measuring
results even in case of non-sinusoidal or dis-
torted signal waveforms. Due to its weather-
proof housing (IP 67 protection), it is suited for
outdoor applications.
The meter will measure voltages up to
1000 V /~, currents up to 10 A /~, frequen-
cies up to 10 MHz, resistances up to 40 MΩ,
capacitances up to 40 mF and temperatures
from -20 °C to +760 °C. It will also test diodes.
A buzzer is provided for testing the continuity,
4 Attaching the Label
Attention labels in eight lang-
uages are supplied with the
meter. Prior to operation, at-
tach the corresponding label
in your language to the field
provided on the battery com-
partment!
5 Operation
1) To switch on the meter, set the selector
switch (10) from the position "OFF" to the
desired function. If there is no indication on
the display (6) or if the symbol appears, in-
sert a new battery (
2) To provide a more comfortable reading posi-
tion, unfold the tilt stand on the rear side of
the meter, if required.
3) Press the button
the display illumination.
4) After operation, set the selector switch to
"OFF". The meter will also be switched off
automatically if it is not used for approx.
30 minutes. Before switching off automati-
cally, warning signals will sound (two short
beeps three times in succession followed by
a long beep). To switch it on again, press a
button or turn the selector switch.
