The following safety information must be observed to insure maximum

personal safety during the operation of this meter:

■ Do not use in wet environments.

■ Measurements beyond the maximum selected range must not be attempted.

■ Extreme care must be taken when measuring above 50 V, especially on live

bus-bars.

■ To measure voltage, the instrument must not be switched to a current or

resistance range, or to the diode check or buzzer position.

■ Circuits must be de-energised and isolated before carrying out resistance

tests.

■ The rotary selector switch must only be turned after removing test

connections.

■ All external voltages must be disconnected from the instrument before

removing the battery.

■ Test leads and prods must be in good order, clean, and with no broken or

cracked insulation.

■ UK Safety Authorities recommend the use of fused test leads when measuring

voltage on high energy systems.

■ Replacement fuses must be of the correct type and rating.

■ The instrument must not be used if any part of it is damaged.

■ Check for correct instrument operation by testing a known voltage before

and after use. Do not use if misleading results are obtained.

■ Warnings and precautions must be read and understood before an instrument

is used. They must be observed during the operation of this instrument.

5. According to measured value the reading will be in Ω, k Ω or MΩ.

Note: The AVO410 provides an open circuit voltage <-1.5 V to the circuit under

test which will cause transistor junctions to conduct so it is advisable to

disconnect the item to be tested from the circuit to obtain an accurate reading.

DIODE / CONTINUITY TESTS

WARNING: To avoid electric shock never test a diode or conduct a continuity

test on an energized circuit.

1. Set the function switch to the diode/continuity position. (The diode and V

7

4. For continuity connect the test probes to the cable or circuit to be tested.

(Polarity is not important).

5. The AVO410 will emit a tone if continuity is below 500 Ω / .OL with no

tone will indicate either open circuit or continuity above 500 Ω.

6. For diode testing connect the test probe tips to the diode or semiconductor

junction and note the reading.

7. Reverse the probe polarity by switching probe position and note this

reading.

8. The diode or junction can be evaluated as follows:

a. If one reading shows a value and the other reading shows .OL, the

diode is good.

FEATURE BUTTONS

BACKLIGHT

The AVO410 has a backlit display for all the different functions which has an

auto off in 60 seconds.

9

MIN MAX

The MIN MAX function enables the user to display both a minimum

and a maximum measured reading. To activate, ﬁrst select a function

and make a measurement. Press the MIN MAX button to store the

maximum reading. Should the value increase then the new value will

be stored. Pressing the MIN MAX button once more will switch the

instrument display to minimum reading.

Pressing the HOLD button while in MIN MAX mode will stop the

AVO410 updating the maximum and minimum displayed reading.

Holding down the MIN MAX button for >1 sec. will switch the

function off.

HOLD

Press the HOLD button to freeze the reading on the display. The MIN

MAX function is unavailable when the Hold is active.

RS-232

With an optional USB adapter and software the AVO410 can be

utilised with a computer to provide a virtual multimeter mode.

RANGE

When any of the individual functions are ﬁrst selected the unit will

be in the auto ranging mode.

Each successive press of the range button will enable the operator to

manually choose a required range.

AUTO POWER OFF / DISABLE

If the meter is idle for more than 10 minutes, the meter automatically

turns the display off. During this off time the last reading on the

meter is stored. The AVO410 can be restored by pressing any button.

To disable the power off function simultaneously hold down the

MIN MAX, RS232 and Range buttons and switch instrument to

required function.

10

MAINTENANCE

To clean the instrument, do not immerse in water, periodically wipe the case

with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Dirt in the terminals may affect readings.

Remove the battery if the AVO410 is not to be used for a long period of time.

When the low battery symbol appears on the display, replace the battery.

To replace battery remove instrument from black boot and unscrew two

screws on battery cover to reveal battery.

An internal user replaceable fuse can be accessed for replacement by unscrewing

the four deep recess screws. Carefully separate the two halves of the tester

taking care of battery lead. Use only the recommended replacement fuse

(10 A 500 V 32 mm).

REPAIR AND WARRANTY

The instrument contains static sensitive devices, and care must be taken in

handling the printed circuit board. If an instrument’s protection has been

impaired it should not be used, but sent for repair by suitably trained and

qualiﬁed personnel. The protection is likely to be impaired if for example; it

shows visible damage; fails to perform the intended measurements; has been

subjected to prolonged storage under unfavourable conditions, or has been

subjected to severe transport stresses.

Note: Any unauthorised prior repair or adjustment will automatically

invalidate the warranty.

Fonctionnement

MESURE DES TENSIONS CA

1. Placer le commutateur de fonction sur la position V AC pour les volts CA

[AUTO, T-RMS (valeurs efﬁcaces vraies) et AC volts apparaîtront sur

l’afﬁcheur].

2. Insérer le cordon de test noir dans le jack COM et le cordon de test rouge

dans le jack V.

3. Connecter les pointes de touche au circuit à tester.

4. Lire la tension sur l’afﬁcheur.

MESURE DES TENSIONS CC

1. Placer le commutateur de fonction sur la position V DC pour les volts CC

(AUTO et DC volts apparaîtront sur l’afﬁcheur).

2. Insérer le cordon de test noir dans le jack COM et le cordon de test rouge

dans le jack V.

3. Connecter les pointes de touche au circuit à tester. Veiller à respecter les

polarités correctes (le cordon rouge au « plus » et le cordon noir au

« moins »)

4. Lire la tension sur l’afﬁcheur. Si la polarité est inversée, l’afﬁchage montrera

le moins (-) avant la lecture.

MESURE DE RESISTANCE (Ω)

1. Placer le commutateur de fonction sur la position Ω (AUTO et MΩ

apparaîtront sur l’afﬁcheur).

2. De plus, O.L sera afﬁché pour indiquer un circuit ouvert.

5. Selon la valeur à mesurer, la lecture sera en Ω, k Ω ou MΩ.

Note : L’AVO410 fournit une tension de circuit ouvert < - 1,5 V au circuit en

test, ce qui causera la conduction des jonctions du transistor, aussi est-il recom-

mandé de déconnecter l’article à examiner du circuit pour obtenir une lecture

précise.

DIODE / TESTS DE CONTINUITE

AVERTISSEMENT : Pour éviter le choc électrique ne jamais examiner une

diode ou effectuer un essai de continuité sur un circuit sous tension.

1. Placer le commutateur de fonction dans la position « diode/continuité ». (le

symbole V et le symbole de la diode apparaîtront).

2. De plus, OL sera afﬁché pour indiquer un circuit ouvert.
