5. Basic Operation and Features

5.1 Powering the Meter 1. Set the function switch to any position to switch on the meter. 2. If the battery status indicator appears low or if the meter does not power on, replace the two (2) AAA batteries. See Section 7.2, Battery Replacement.

5.2 Intelligent Auto Power OFF (APO) The meter will intelligently avoid entering the APO mode under normal measurement conditions. The APO feature turns the meter off automatically, in order to extend battery life, after approximately 32 minutes if none of the conditions below are met:

1) Rotary switch or push button operation

2) Significant measurement value (reading above 8.5% of the range)

3) Non-OL readings for Resistance, Continuity or Diode function

4) Non-zero readings for Hz function

5) Electric field signal present for EF NCV function

To wake the meter from APO, short press the MODE button, or turn the rotary switch OFF and then back on. Always turn the rotary switch to the OFF position when the meter is not in use.

5.3 LCD Backlight Long press the backlight button to toggle the LCD backlight ON and OFF. The backlight will automatically switch OFF after 10 minutes to conserve battery energy.

5.4 Auto/Manual Range Mode For most auto-ranging functions, short press the RANGE button to select manual- ranging override. The meter will remain in the range it was in and the auto range display icon will switch off. Short press the button again to select the next range. Long press the button to resume auto-ranging. Note: Manual-ranging is not available for Auto-V, Capacitance & Hz functions.

5.5 True RMS Response True RMS (Root Mean Square) allows the meter to respond accurately to the effective RMS value, regardless of the waveform shape (square, saw-tooth, triangle, pulse, spike, as well as distorted waveforms with the presence of harmonics).

5.6 Crest Factor Crest Factor is the ratio of the Crest (instantaneous peak) value to the True RMS value. A pure sine wave has a Crest Factor of 1.414. A badly distorted sinusoidal waveform normally has a much higher Crest Factor.

5.7 Out-of-range Warning (O.L) If the input is over/under the full-scale range in Manual range mode, or if the signal has exceeded the maximum/minimum input in Auto range mode, O.L is displayed.

FLIR DM6x USER MANUAL Document Identifier: DM6x-en-US_AB 12

5.8 Data Hold In Data Hold mode, the displayed reading is held. To enter/exit Data Hold mode, short

press the button. In Hold mode, the indicator is displayed.

5.9 Relative Zero Mode Relative Zero allows the user to offset measurements by the amount determined by a stored reference value. Almost any displayed reading can be set as the relative reference value including MAX/MIN/AVG readings. Long press the button to toggle Relative Zero mode ON and OFF. When switched ON, the meter stores the displayed reading as the offset/reference value, the zero (0) symbol appears on the upper right, and the meter will display the measurement value minus the stored reference.

5.10 VFD Mode (Low Pass Filter) Models DM64/DM66 only The VFD (variable-frequency drive) utility eliminates high-frequency noise from AC voltage measurements. This is accomplished using a low-pass filter. To activate, short press the MODE button until the VFD symbol appears.

5.11 MAX-MIN-AVG Record Mode Short press REC to activate the recording mode, three arrow icons ( [MAX], [MIN], and [AVG]) will appear indicating that the meter is now recording. Short press the REC button to step through the MAX-MIN-AVG readings. The meter beeps when new MAX or MIN readings are detected. Long press REC to exit the recording mode. Auto-ranging is active and Auto-Power-Off is disabled in this mode.

5.12 Test Lead Input Warning The meter beeps (at a fast rate) as well as displays InEr to warn the user that an

improper connection to the A, mA, or A input jack is being made when another function, especially a voltage function, is selected.

5.13 Auto Voltage AC/DC Detection in Lo Z mode (DM64/DM66 only) Auto Voltage Lo Z mode automatically selects DCV or ACV, based on input levels detected through the test leads. This mode uses a Lo Z low ramp-up impedance (approx. 2.1k for low voltages) to drain ghost voltages. Refer to Section 6.2 Low Impedance Auto-Voltage Measurements for complete details.

FLIR DM6x USER MANUAL Document Identifier: DM6x-en-US_AB 13

6. Measurements

Caution: Before and after hazardous voltage measurements, test the voltage function on a known source such as line voltage to determine proper meter functioning.

Caution: Before operating the device, you must read, understand, and follow all instructions, dangers, warnings, cautions, and notes.

Caution: When the meter is not in use, the function switch should be set to the OFF position.

Caution: When connecting the probe leads to the device under test, connect the COM (negative) lead before connecting the positive lead. When removing the probe leads, remove the positive lead before removing the COM (negative) lead.

6.1 AC/DC Voltage Measurements (VFD and Frequency on DM64/DM66)

Move the rotary switch to the position and short press the MODE button to step through the following modes: DCV, ACV, and ACV with VFD*. The last selection will be saved as the power-up default. For AC, short press the Hz button to view the frequency* and press again to return to the voltage measurement (refer to Section 6-3 for more on Frequency measurement features). Refer to Fig. 6-1 for function switch position, test lead connection, push-button operation, and display example. *VFD and Frequency available on models DM64/DM66 only

Figure 6-1 ACV, DCV, and VFD application diagram

Notes: VFD-ACV and the associated Hz measurement are equipped with a digital low- pass filter, and are capable of handling VFD (Variable Frequency Drives) signals for fundamental V & Hz readings. It also improves ACV and Hz reading stability when being used in noisy electrical environments.

FLIR DM6x USER MANUAL Document Identifier: DM6x-en-US_AB 14

6.2 Low Impedance (Lo Z) Auto-Voltage Measurements (DM64/66 only) Auto Voltage Lo Z mode automatically selects DCV or ACV, based on input levels detected through the test leads. This mode uses a Lo Z low ramp-up impedance (approx. 2.1k for low voltages) to drain ghost voltages*. Refer to Fig. 6-2 for function switch position, test lead connection, and display example.

Figure 6-2 LoZ application diagram

With no input, the meter displays - - - - when it is ready for testing.

When a signal above the voltage threshold of 8.0V DC or 5.5V AC (up to the rated 600V) is present, the meter displays the voltage value in DC or AC, whichever is larger in peak magnitude. Attempting to measure Lo Z voltages below these limits will result in the same readings as for the normal voltage measurement mode.

Notes: *Ghost-voltages are unwanted stray signals, coupled from adjacent live signals, which can confuse common Multimeter voltage measurements. This feature is helpful when distinguishing between hot and open wires (to ground) in electrical installations, for example. Only HOLD, EF (NCV) & Backlight push-button features are available in Auto Voltage mode.

WARNING: Lo Z Auto Voltage mode input impedance increases abruptly from the initial 2.1k to a few hundred ks on high voltage hard signals. Lo Z appears on the LCD as a reminder. Peak initial load current, while probing 1000VAC for example, can be as high as 673mA (1000V x 1.414 / 2.1k), decreasing abruptly to approx. 2.4mA (1000V x 1.414 / 580k) within a fraction of a second.Do not use this feature on circuits that could be damaged by such low input impedance. Instead, use the high input impedance voltage modes to minimize loading on such circuits (rotary

switch set to the position).

FLIR DM6x USER MANUAL Document Identifier: DM6x-en-US_AB 15

6.3 Line Frequency Measurements (DM64/DM66 only) Short press the Hz button to toggle the frequency function ON and OFF. Refer to Fig. 6-3 for function switch position, test lead connection, push-button operation, and display example. A voltage application is shown in Fig. 6-3, but line frequency can also be viewed in AC Current applications; however, the input sensitivity adjustment, as detailed below, applies to AC Voltage applications only.

Figure 6-3 Line Frequency Measurements (Hz) for ACV/VFD

Note on Input Sensitivity for voltage applications:

Input sensitivity varies automatically with the range selected. The 6V range has the highest

sensitivity and the 1000V range has the lowest. In the DCV, ACV or VFD-ACV voltage functions, the

trigger voltage will be displayed immediately before starting the Hz measurement. While displayed,

short press the RANGE button to manually select another trigger voltage range (voltage modes

only). First measure the signal voltage (or current) level and then activate the Hz function in that

range to find the optimum trigger level. If the Hz reading becomes unstable, select a lower

sensitivity to avoid electrical noise. If the reading shows zero, select a higher sensitivity.

6.4 Resistance and Continuity Measurements

Warning: Do not perform resistance or continuity tests before removing power from capacitors and other devices under test during a measurement. Injury to persons can occur.

Short press the MODE button to toggle Resistance and Continuity functions. The last selection will be saved as the power-up default. Refer to the Fig. 6-4 for function switch position, test lead connection, push-button operation, and display examples.

Figure 6-4 Resistance and Continuity Measurements

For convenience, the Continuity function offers a continuous beep tone together with a flashing LCD backlight indicating a complete wire. This audio-visual indication is especially handy in noisy work environments. If the resistance is < 30 the meter beeps. If the resistance is > 480 the meter will not beep. If the resistance is > 30 but < 480 the beeping will stop at an unspecified point. CAUTION Be sure to remove power from any circuit or device before measuring resistance and continuity. Measuring resistance and continuity on a live circuit will produce false results and may damage the instrument.

FLIR DM6x USER MANUAL Document Identifier: DM6x-en-US_AB 17

Warning: Do not perform capacitance or diode tests before removing power to the devices under test. Injury to persons can occur.

Short press the MODE button to toggle the Capacitance and Diode functions. The last selection will be saved as the power-up default. Refer to the Fig. 6-5 for function switch position, test lead connection, push-button operation, and display example for Capacitance testing. Refer to Fig 6-6 for diode testing.

Figure 6-5 Capacitance Testing

CAUTION Discharge capacitors before making any measurements. Large value capacitors should be discharged through an appropriate resistance load. Large value capacitors will require ample time before a stable reading is displayed.

FLIR DM6x USER MANUAL Document Identifier: DM6x-en-US_AB 18

In the Diode mode, the normal forward voltage drop (forward biased) for a good silicon diode is between 0.400V to 0.900V (Fig 6-6, left). A reading higher than that indicates a leaky diode (defective). A zero reading indicates a shorted diode (defective). An OL display indicates an open diode (defective). Reverse the test lead connection (reverse biased) across the diode (Fig 6-6, right). The digital display shows OL if the diode is good. Any other readings indicate that the diode is resistive or shorted (defective).
