5. Gosod

5.1 Gosod Batri

The BTMETER BT-38B requires two AAA batteries for operation.

Instructions for replacing batteries in the BTMETER BT-38B Digital Pen Multimeter. Shows rotating the battery bin and pulling it out to insert AAA batteries.

Ffigur 5.1: Amnewid Batri

  1. Locate the battery cover at the bottom of the multimeter.
  2. Rotate the battery bin counter-clockwise until it pops up.
  3. Carefully pull out the battery bin.
  4. Mewnosodwch ddau fatri AAA, gan sicrhau'r polaredd cywir (+/-).
  5. Slide the battery bin back into the multimeter and rotate clockwise to secure it.

Pan fydd yr eicon batri 🔋 lights up on the screen, it indicates that the battery needs to be replaced.

6. Cyfarwyddiadau Gweithredu

6.1 Gweithrediad Cyffredinol

  • Turn the toggle switch from OFF to the desired measurement function (Voltage or Ohms/Continuity/Diode).
  • Cysylltwch y gwifrau prawf â'r gylched neu'r gydran sy'n cael ei phrofi.
  • Darllenwch y gwerth mesur ar yr arddangosfa LCD.
  • The meter features an Auto Power Off function after 15 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life. A "BEEP" warning will sound before auto power off.

6.2 AC/DC Cyftage Mesur

The BT-38B can measure AC voltage o 2V i 600V a chyfaint DCtage from 200mV to 600V.

  1. Turn the toggle switch to the "V" position.
  2. Gwasgwch y DETHOL button to switch between AC and DC voltage modes as needed. The display will indicate "AC" or "DC".
  3. Connect the red test lead to the positive (+) side of the circuit and the black test lead (COM) to the negative (-) side or ground.
  4. Darllenwch y cyftage gwerth ar yr arddangosfa LCD.

6.3 Mesur Gwrthiant

Measure resistance from 200 Ohm to 20M Ohm.

  1. Turn the toggle switch to the "Ω" position.
  2. Gwnewch yn siŵr bod y gylched wedi'i dad-egnïo cyn mesur gwrthiant.
  3. Cysylltwch y gwifrau prawf ar draws y gydran yr hoffech fesur ei gwrthiant.
  4. Darllenwch y gwerth gwrthiant ar yr arddangosfa LCD.

6.4 Prawf Parhad

The built-in buzzer sounds if resistance is less than 50Ω.

  1. Turn the toggle switch to the "Ω" position.
  2. Gwasgwch y DETHOL button until the continuity symbol (a sound wave icon) appears on the display.
  3. Cysylltwch y gwifrau prawf ar draws y gylched neu'r gydran.
  4. If there is continuity (low resistance), the buzzer will sound.

6.5 Swyddogaeth Dal Data

I rewi'r darlleniad cyfredol ar yr arddangosfa:

  • Gwasgwch y DALWCH button during a measurement. The "HOLD" indicator will appear.
  • Gwasgwch y DALWCH button again to release the data hold and resume live readings.
