- For high current measurements up to 10A, connect the red test lead to the 10A Jack tāuru.

3. Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere
3.1. Te Hiko / Whakaweto
To turn the multimeter on, rotate the function switch from the WATE position to any desired measurement function. To turn the multimeter off, rotate the function switch back to the WATE tūnga.
3.2. Function Selection (Rotary Dial)
The large rotary dial on the front of the multimeter allows you to select the desired measurement function. The EX330 features automatic ranging, which simplifies operation by automatically selecting the correct measurement range.
- VAC / VDC: Measures AC or DC Voltage.
- mA / 10A: Measures AC or DC Current (milliampmua ranei ampake).
- Ω: Measures Resistance.
- KAUPAPA: Measures Capacitance.
- Hz /%: Measures Frequency and Duty Cycle.
- ° F / ° C: Measures Temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
- Diode / Tonu: Tests diodes and checks for circuit continuity.
3.3. Whakapā-kore Voltage (NCV) Rapunga
The NCV feature allows for quick detection of AC voltage without direct contact, enhancing safety when working with electrical systems. To use the NCV function, press and hold the NCV button. The top of the meter will illuminate and an audible tone will sound if AC voltagka kitea e.

3.4. Rererangitage Inenga (AC/DC)
Hei ine voltage:
- Tautuhia te waea hurihuri ki VAC or VDC e tika ana.
- Tūhono i te mata whakamātautau pango ki te COM Jack me te whakamatautau whero arahi ki te V/Ω/µA/CAP/Hz/Temp koki.
- Tūhonoa ngā probe whakamātautau kia whakarara puta noa i te ara iahiko, i te wāhanga rānei e inehia ana.
- Pānuihia te voltage uara i runga i te whakaaturanga LCD.

3.5. Temperature Measurement (Type K)
The EX330 includes a Type K temperature probe for accurate temperature readings.
- Tautuhia te waea hurihuri ki °F or °C.
- Plug the Type K temperature probe into the V/Ω/µA/CAP/Hz/Temp a COM input jacks, observing polarity.
- Whakatakotoria te pito o te ine pāmahana ki runga, ki te taha rānei o te mea e inehia ana te pāmahana.
- Allow time for the reading to stabilize on the display.

3.6. Data Hold and Max Hold
- Pehia te KAUPAPA pātene hei whakatio i te pānui o nāianei kei te mata. Pēhia anō hei tuku.
- Pehia te MODE button repeatedly while in certain functions to cycle through sub-functions or to activate MAX HOLD, which captures and displays the maximum measured value.
