How to use the Victor 3010 :
Before taking a measurement:
-
- Install batteries: Open the rear cover and insert the two AAA batteries and the 9V battery.
- Adjust meter zero: Turn the mechanical zero adjuster dial, which is often a screw near the needle, until the pointer perfectly aligns with the zero position on the scale.
- Calibrate for resistance: For resistance measurements, short the test leads together and turn the “Zero Ohm” knob until the needle aligns with the “0” mark on the ohms scale.
To measure DC voltage:
-
- Select range: Turn the selector knob to a DCV setting that is higher than the expected voltage. If the voltage is unknown, start with the highest range (1000V).
- Connect probes: Connect the black probe to the negative terminal and the red probe to the positive terminal of the circuit.
- Read the scale: Read the measurement from the DC/AC scale on the oversized display, using the numbers that correspond to your chosen range.
To measure DC current:
- Connect probes: Connect the black probe to the “Common” (COM) port and the red probe to the positive port.
- Select range: Turn the knob to the appropriate DCA range. For measurements up to 10 amps, use the standard input. For higher currents, use the dedicated 10A input.
- Connect to circuit: Connect the multimeter in series with the circuit you are testing.
- Read the scale: Read the current value from the scale that corresponds to your chosen range
