1. Introduïu el cable de prova negre al COM (common) jack.
2. Per a la majoria de mesures (Voltage, Resistance, Diode, Continuity, small Current), insert the red test lead into the VΩmA jack.
3. For measuring high currents (up to 10A), insert the red test lead into the 10A jack. Always ensure the correct jack is used to prevent damage to the meter or circuit.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

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

5.1. Mesura de la tensió de CCtage (V–)

Per mesurar DC voltage, such as from batteries or DC power supplies:

1. Ajusteu l'interruptor rotatiu al volum de CC desitjattage (V–) range (e.g., 20V, 200V, 600V). Choose a range higher than the expected voltage.
2. Connecteu el cable de prova negre al COM jack i el cable de prova vermell al 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. Llegeix el 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 Mesura

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. Mesurar AC Voltage (V∼)

Per mesurar AC voltage, such as from wall outlets:

1. Ajusteu l'interruptor rotatiu al volum de CA desitjattage (V∼) range (e.g., 200V, 600V). Choose a range higher than the expected voltage.
2. Connecteu el cable de prova negre al COM jack i el cable de prova vermell al VΩmA jack.
3. Connect the test leads in parallel across the AC source.
4. Llegeix el voltage valor a la pantalla LCD.

Figura 5.2.1: AC Voltage Mesura

This image demonstrates the multimeter measuring AC voltage from a standard wall outlet, displaying a reading of 128.1V. The test leads are inserted into the outlet's receptacles.

5.3. Measuring DC Current (A–)

To measure DC current, the multimeter must be connected in series with the circuit. Caution: Never connect the multimeter in parallel when measuring current, as this can damage the meter and the circuit.

1. Apagueu el circuit.
2. Set the rotary switch to the appropriate DC Current (A–) range (e.g., 200mA, 10A). If measuring current above 200mA, ensure the red test lead is in the 10A jack.
3. Break the circuit and connect the multimeter in series. The current will flow through the meter.
4. Apliqueu alimentació al circuit i llegiu el valor del corrent a la pantalla LCD.

4. Connect the red test lead to the anode of the diode and the black test lead to the cathode.
5. Llegeix el vol endavanttage drop on the LCD display. Reverse the leads to check for reverse bias (should show OL or infinite resistance).

5.7. hFE Measurement (Transistor Test)

The hFE function allows for testing the DC current gain of NPN and PNP transistors.

1. Poseu el commutador rotatiu a la hFE posició.
2. Identify the type (NPN or PNP) and pin configuration (Emitter, Base, Collector) of the transistor.
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. Funció de retenció de dades
