VIII. Operation instructions

1. Current measurement (Figure 3)

• Select range (2A-,20A-,200A-)
• Open clamp head, hook electric wire (single wire), place electric wire on geometric center indicated by clamp head, make sure the left and right clamp heads are totally closed. There is no gap between the left and right clamp heads.
• Read measurement data from LCD.

4. NCV noncontact electric field measurement (for UT210B) Figure 4
If you want to measure whether there is AC voltage or electromagnetic field, place front end of clamp head 8~15mm close to the test piece, analog quantity of inductive AC voltage is about critical voltage 100V, display “EF”, > critical voltage 100V, prompt by buzzing.

5. Other functions

• Long press HOLD key for 2s to tum on or turn off LCD backlight function.
• Automatic power-off: when measuring, if the rotary button has not pulled out in 15 minutes, the instrument will automatically power off to save energy. In automatic power-off mode, turn rotary button to OFF and restart the machine, or wake up the instrument by the following actions:
  (1) For UT21 0A, click any key to wake the instrument.
  (2) For UT210B, click REL key.
• Turn off automatic power-off function:
  (1) UT210A: press and hold HOLD key, press HOLD key to wake instrument under power-on start or automatic power off state, automatic power-off function will be off.
  (2)UT210B: press and hold REL key, then power-on start, you will heard 5 buzzing which means automatic power-off function is cancelled. Turn off and restart the machine, automatic power off function will be recovered.
• The buzzer will send out 5 warnings 1 minute before automatic power off. A long buzz will be heard before power off. When automatic power-off function is canceled, you will hear 5 continuous warnings in every 15 minutes. (UT21 0A has no buzz warning).
• Buzzer (for UT210B ): press any key or rotate function switch,~ such function key is valid, buzzer will “beep” once (lasting approx. 0.25s).When measure current outrange, buzzer will “Beep” to warn outrange, function status is as below: 200A gear. current > maximum range, buzzer beeps.
• Low-voltage detect: when battery voltage is lower than 2.5V, battery under-voltage symbol appears, measurement accuracy may be lower once this symbol shows, replace battery timely; if it is lower than 2.2V, only battery under-voltage symbol shows after starting up, it can’t work.
• When battery supply voltage lowers to 2.6V, LCD backlight will be in weak or non-start state; but measurement functions still work.
