5.2 Proba-kableak konektatzea

Always connect the black test lead to the COM (common) terminal. Connect the red test lead to the appropriate input terminal based on the measurement function:

• VΩHzBolumenerakotage, resistance, frequency, capacitance, and diode/continuity measurements.
• mAµA: Milirakoampere eta mikroampegungo neurketak.
• 10A: For high current (up to 10A) measurements.

6. Funtzionamendu-argibideak

The AM-570 features a rotary dial for selecting primary measurement functions and push buttons for secondary functions and settings.

6.1 Funtzio hautaketa

Turn the rotary dial to the desired measurement function. Use the AUKERATU button to toggle between primary and secondary functions within a single dial position (e.g., AC/DC voltage, erresistentzia/jarraitasuna/diodoa).

6.2 Neurketa funtzioak

• liburukiatage (V~ / V--): Select the V~ (AC) or V-- (DC) position. Connect test leads in parallel with the circuit.
• Current (10A / mAµA): Select the 10A or mAµA position. Connect the meter in series with the circuit. Ensure correct terminal connection.
• Erresistentzia (Ω): Select the Ω position. Ensure power is off and capacitors are discharged. Connect test leads across the component.
• Continuity ())): Select the Ω position and press AUKERATU until the continuity symbol appears. A continuous beep indicates continuity.
• Diode Test (→|): Select the Ω position and press AUKERATU until the diode symbol appears. Connect leads across the diode.
• Kapazitatea (F): Select the F position. Ensure power is off and capacitors are discharged. Connect leads across the capacitor.
• Maiztasuna (Hz) / Lan-zikloa (%): Select the Hz% position. Connect leads to the signal source. Press AUKERATU to toggle between frequency and duty cycle.
• Tenperatura (° C / ° F): Select the TEMP °C/°F position. Insert K-type thermocouple probes into the T1 and T2 inputs. Press AUKERATU to toggle between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
• Kontaktu gabeko boltage (NCV): Select the NCV position. Hold the top of the meter near a live conductor. The NCV indicator and audible alarm will activate if voltage detektatzen da.
• Low Z Mode: Select the LoZ V~ position for AC voltage measurements with low impedance. This helps to eliminate ghost voltages.
• Behe-iragazkia: Activated automatically in certain AC voltage modes, this filter allows for accurate measurements on variable frequency drives.

6.3 Funtzio bereziak

• RANGE: Manually select the measurement range instead of auto-ranging.
• REL (Modu erlatiboa): Measures the difference between a stored reference value and the current reading.
• MAX/MIN: Records the maximum and minimum values over a measurement period.
• EUTSI: Freezes the current display reading.
• PEAK (1ms): Captures fast transient peaks (positive and negative) with a 1ms response time.
