Measuring Temperature (35XP-A only)

1. Set the function switch to appropriate °C or °F range.

2. Connect the K-type thermocouple to a TEMP adapter (XR-TA).

Match the polarity of the adapter to the polarity of the thermocouple.

3. Connect the TEMP adapter to the E and COM inputs.

Note: The 35XP-A is compatible with all K-type thermocouples. The K-type bead

thermocouple supplied with the meter is not intended for contact with liquids or electrical

circuits.

4. Expose the thermocouple to the temperature to be measured.

5. Read the display.

1. Set the Function Switch to Hz.

2. Connect the test leads: Red to Hz, Black to COM.

3. Connect the test probes to the signal source.

4. Read the display.

1. Range switch may be set to OFF or any function/range.

2. Test leads are not used for the NCV test.

3. Press the NCV button. The display goes blank, a tone sounds and the red LED

next to the NCV button on the front panel lights up to verify that the instrument

is operational. While pressing the button, hold the top-center of the meter z

(sensor location) close to the conductor/circuit in question.

4. If a voltage in the range of 70 to 600 V ac is present, a tone sounds and the red

LED next to the NCV button on the front panel lights up.

1. Set the Function Switch to the appropriate BATT setting, 1.5 V or 9 V.

2. Connect the test leads: Red to BATT 1.5 V or BATT 9 V, Black to COM.

3. Connect the test probes across the battery. The meter applies an appropriate

load to the battery.

4. Read the display. A good 1.5 volt battery should measure >1.2 V, and a good

9 volt battery should measure > 7.2 V.
