4. Tatūnga: Tāuta Pūhiko

The MS8211D requires two 1.5V AAA batteries for operation. Batteries are not included in the package.

1. Locate the battery compartment cover on the rear of the multimeter.
2. Using a small screwdriver, carefully remove the screw securing the battery cover.
3. Lift off the battery compartment cover.
4. Insert two 1.5V AAA batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+ and -) as indicated inside the compartment.
5. Whakakapia te uhi o te wahanga pākahiko ka mau ki te huri.

Hiranga: Always ensure the multimeter is turned off before installing or replacing batteries. Remove batteries if the device will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage.

5. Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere

Before operation, ensure the test leads are properly connected and the function dial is set to the desired measurement mode.

5.1. AC/DC Voltage Measurement (V~) / (V=)

1. Turn the rotary switch to the "V~" (AC Voltage) or "V=" (DC Voltage) tūnga.
2. Connect the red test lead to the "V" input jack and the black test lead to the "COM" input jack.
3. Touch the test probes to the circuit points where voltage me ine.
4. Pānuihia te voltage value on the display. The unit will automatically select the appropriate range.

5.2. AC/DC Current Measurement (mA~) / (mA=)

1. Turn the rotary switch to the "mA~" (AC Current) or "mA=" (DC Current) position.
2. Connect the red test lead to the "mA" input jack and the black test lead to the "COM" input jack.
3. Tupato: To measure current, the multimeter must be connected in series with the circuit. Ensure the circuit is de-energized before connecting the multimeter.
4. Wāwāhia te ara iahiko ka whakauru i te mita maha kia raupapa.
5. Re-energize the circuit and read the current value on the display.

5.3. Ine ātete (Ω)

1. Turn the rotary switch to the "Ω" (Resistance) position.
2. Connect the red test lead to the "V" input jack and the black test lead to the "COM" input jack.
3. Me whakarite kua whakakorea te hiko o te ara iahiko, te wāhanga rānei e inehia ana.
4. Touch the test probes across the component.
5. Panuihia te uara aukati kei runga i te whakaaturanga.

5.4. Logic Level Test

This function allows for quick testing of digital logic levels.

1. Turn the rotary switch to the "LOGIC" position.
2. Connect the black test lead to the "COM" input jack. The red test lead is integrated into the pen tip.
3. Touch the pen tip to the point on the circuit where the logic level is to be tested.
4. The display will indicate:
   • Taumata teitei: Mena voltage he >3.5V
   • Taumata Iti: Mena voltage is <3.5V

5.5. Diode Check (→|)

1. Turn the rotary switch to the "→|" (Diode) position.
2. Connect the red test lead to the "V" input jack and the black test lead to the "COM" input jack.
3. Honoa te ine whero ki te anode me te ine pango ki te cathode o te diode.
4. Panuitia te pukapuka whakamuatagmaturuturu iho i runga i te whakaaturanga. Hurihia ngā ine hei tirotiro i te tohu ara iahiko tuwhera (OL).

5.6. Whakamātautau Tonutanga (•)))

1. Turn the rotary switch to the "•)))" (Continuity) position.
2. Connect the red test lead to the "V" input jack and the black test lead to the "COM" input jack.
3. Touch the test probes to the two points of the circuit or component to be tested.
4. If continuity exists (resistance below a certain threshold), the multimeter will emit an audible beep and display a low resistance value. An "OL" (Open Loop) indicates no continuity.

5.7. Pupuri Raraunga (PURI)

Pēhia te pātene "PUPURI" hei whakatio i te pānui o nāianei kei te mata. Pēhia anō hei tuku i te pātene pupuri me te tīmata anō i ngā inenga ora.

5.8. Maximum Value Hold (MAX H)

Press the "MAX H" button to activate the maximum value hold function. The multimeter will continuously monitor and display the highest value measured since the function was activated. Press it again to exit this mode.

5.9. Whakakorea te Aunoa

To conserve battery life, the MS8211D is equipped with an auto power-off feature. If no operation is performed for approximately 15 minutes, the multimeter will automatically shut down. To reactivate, turn the rotary switch to the "OFF" position and then back to the desired measurement function.

6. Tiaki

• Te horoi: Horoia te c o te mita mahaasing me te panuiamp kakahu me te horoi ngawari. Kaua e whakamahi i te abrasive me te whakarewa.
• Rokiroki: Store the device in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
• Whakatikatika: For professional use, periodic calibration by qualified personnel is recommended to ensure accuracy.
• Whakakapinga Pūhiko: Replace batteries promptly when the low battery indicator appears on the display to ensure accurate readings and proper operation.
