5. Setup

5.1 Battery Installation and Charging

The ET11S Pro comes with a built-in detachable 18650 lithium battery. Ensure the battery is properly installed before first use. Charge the device using the provided USB Type-C cable.

• Locate the battery compartment on the device.
• Insert the 18650 lithium battery, ensuring correct polarity.
• Close the battery compartment securely.
• Connect the USB Type-C cable to the device and a suitable USB power source for charging.
• A full charge provides approximately 8 hours of continuous operation.

5.2 Initial Power On

Press and hold the power button (usually the top-left button on the device) for 3 seconds to turn on the device. The device will boot into its default mode.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Multimeter Function

The multimeter offers a wide range of measurement functions, including AC/DC voltage, AC/DC current, resistance, capacitance, diode, buzzer, and duty cycle. It features a 19999 count True RMS display.

• Connecting Probes: Insert the universal probes into the appropriate input ports (COM and VΩ-Hz or AC/DC Current).
• Selecting Measurement Mode: Use the 'Short press: Switch multimeter gear' button to cycle through different measurement functions (e.g., V, A, Ω, F, Hz).
• Automatic Range: The multimeter defaults to automatic range measurement. For manual range, short press the 'Manual range' button.
• Data Hold: Short press the 'Data retention' button to hold the current reading on the display.
• LIVE Mode (Frontline Live Identification): In multimeter mode, switch to LIVE mode to distinguish between neutral and live wires. This function provides sensitive sensing with an interface prompt accompanied by a buzzing sound to help identify live wires and avoid electric shock.

6.2 Thermal Imaging Function

The thermal imaging camera features a 32x32 infrared resolution and a 240x240 visible light resolution, with a temperature range of -20°C to +550°C.

• Switching to Thermal Imaging: In multimeter mode, short press the 'Thermal imaging function switch' button to activate the thermal camera.
• Temperature Tracking: The device automatically tracks the highest temperature point, lowest temperature point, and a center point.
• Over-temperature Alarm: An alarm will activate if the measured temperature exceeds a set threshold.
• Color Palettes: Long press the 'Switch color palette' button to choose from 5 color palette modes: Iron Red, Rainbow, Fusion, White Heat, and Red Heat.
• Dual Light Fusion: The device supports dual light fusion, combining visible light and infrared images for enhanced detail. Long press the 'Dual light fusion ratio switching' button to adjust the fusion ratio.
