Description
The Greenlee CMT-90 Digital Clamp-on Meter is a hand-held testing device with the
following measurement capabilities: AC and DC voltage, AC current, and resistance.
It also tests diodes and verifies continuity. The CMT-90 is a true RMS-reading meter.
This unit automatically determines measurement function based on input. It has a
smart data hold feature with audible and visual alert if the input changes significantly
while the unit is in HOLD mode. The unit automatically enters HOLD mode when the
jaw is removed from a conductor while measuring AC current. It performs a self-test
and displays approximate remaining battery capacity during the power-up sequence.
The Automatic Power Off feature can be disabled if desired.
The display automatically illuminates for easy viewing in dark areas.

Using the Features
ON/OFF/HOLD: Momentarily press the ON/OFF/HOLD button to hold the present
measurement on the display; momentarily press again to return to the normal
display mode. Press and hold to turn the unit on or off.
Smart Hold: The hold feature is disabled when “OL is displayed on the LCD. The
LCD will blink and the beeper will sound if the unit is in HOLD mode and the input
increases by 5.0 volts or 5.0 amps. It will also blink and flash if the unit is in HOLD
mode and detects an input type change, such as from AC volts to AC amps.
Auto Hold (AC amps only): The unit automatically holds a stable AC current
measurement that is 3 amps or more. The unit beeps three times to indicate it has
saved the stable value. This value will be displayed for 5 seconds after the unit
is removed from the conductor. The value can be recalled by pressing the HOLD
button. To enable this feature, press and hold the ON/OFF/HOLD button until the
“AutoHold” icon blinks when turning the unit on, approximately 5 seconds.
Battery Capacity Display: The unit displays the percentage of remaining battery
capacity when it is powering up. Replace the battery when “0%” is shown.
Power-on Self-test: The unit automatically tests its internal circuitry after it
displays battery capacity. If a problem is found, the LCD will display “FAIL”. Do not
use the meter if “FAIL is shown on the LCD.
Note: Do not measure while powering up as this could cause an incorrect self-test
failure.
Automatic Power Off: To extend battery life, the unit will shut itself off after
approximately 20 minutes of inactivity. To disable this feature, press and hold
the ON/OFF/HOLD button until the “APO” icon blinks when turning the unit on,
approximately 3 seconds.

AC Measurement
AC measurements are usually displayed as RMS (root mean squared) values. Two
methods of AC measurement are average-responding RMS calibrated and true
RMS-reading.
The average-responding RMS calibrated method takes the average value of the input
signal, multiplies it by 1.11, and displays the result. This method is accurate if the
input signal is a pure sine wave.
The true RMS-reading method uses internal circuitry to read the true RMS value. This
method is accurate, within the specified crest factor limitations, whether the input
signal is a pure sine wave, a square wave, sawtooth wave, half wave or signal with
harmonics. The ability to read true RMS provides much more measurement versatil-
ity. The Greenlee CMT-90 is a true RMS meter.
The Waveforms and Crest Factors table shows some typical AC signals and their
RMS values.
