5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

This section details how to use the Cyeelves Digital Multimeter VC830L for various electrical measurements.

5.1. Kejl tal-Volum DCtage (V–)

Biex tkejjel DC voltage, such as from batteries or DC power supplies:

1. Set the rotary switch to the desired DC Voltage (V–) range (e.g., 20V, 200V, 600V). Choose a range higher than the expected voltage.
2. Qabbad iċ - ċomb iswed tat - test mal - COM jack u l-wajer tat-test aħmar għall- VΩmA jack.
3. Connect the test leads in parallel across the component or circuit to be measured. The red lead connects to the positive side, and the black lead to the negative side.
4. Aqra l-voltage value on the LCD display. If a negative sign appears, the polarity of the test leads is reversed.

Figura 5.1.1: DC Voltage Kejl

This image shows the multimeter actively measuring DC voltage from a battery, with the display showing a reading of 0.98V. The test leads are correctly connected to the battery terminals.

5.2. Kejl AC Voltage (V∼)

Biex tkejjel AC voltage, such as from wall outlets:

1. Set the rotary switch to the desired AC Voltage (V∼) range (e.g., 200V, 600V). Choose a range higher than the expected voltage.
2. Qabbad iċ - ċomb iswed tat - test mal - COM jack u l-wajer tat-test aħmar għall- VΩmA jack.
3. Connect the test leads in parallel across the AC source.
4. Aqra l-voltage valur fuq il-wiri LCD.

3. Insert the transistor leads into the corresponding sockets on the multimeter's hFE test socket.
4. Read the hFE value on the LCD display.

5.8. Funzjoni ta' Żamma tad-Data

Agħfas il- ŻOMM button (often integrated with the LED button or a separate button) to freeze the current reading on the display. Press it again to release the hold and resume live measurements.

5.9. Operazzjoni tad-Dawl ta' Wara

Agħfas il- LED button to turn on the display backlight for improved visibility in dim environments. Press it again to turn off the backlight.

6. Manutenzjoni

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your multimeter.

• Tindif: Imsaħ il-miter b'reklamaramp drapp u deterġent ħafif. Tużax abrażivi jew solventi.
• Sostituzzjoni tal-batterija: Replace the 9V battery as described in Section 4.1 when the low battery indicator appears on the display.
• Ħażna: If the meter is not used for a long period, remove the battery to prevent leakage. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Fjusis: The multimeter has built-in fuses for overload protection. If the current measurement function stops working, the fuse may need replacement. This should only be performed by qualified personnel.
