5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Display Modes
Upon powering on, the device typically displays the current voltage. Pressing the 'UP' or 'DOWN' buttons briefly will cycle through voltage and current displays.
5.2. Main Menu Settings
To enter the setting mode, long-press the 'SET' button for approximately 3 seconds. Use the 'UP' (▲) and 'DOWN' (▼) buttons to navigate through the parameters (A01-A07 for voltage, R08-R12 for current and calibration) and adjust their values. Press 'SET' briefly to confirm a value and move to the next parameter. Long-press 'SET' again to save all changes and exit the setting mode.

5.4. Power Switch Function
To manually turn the device ON or OFF, long-press the 'POWER' button for more than 3 seconds. This acts as an equivalent power switch.
6. Maintenance
- Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Ensure the device is unplugged before cleaning.
- Avoid exposing the device to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
- Regularly check the plug and cable for any signs of damage.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Device does not power on/display is off | No power from wall socket; Device is off; Faulty unit. | Check wall socket with another appliance. Long-press 'POWER' button to turn on. If problem persists, contact support. |
| Protector trips frequently (cuts power) | Voltage outside set limits; Over-current detected; Sensitive settings. | Check input voltage. Reduce load on the protector. Adjust over/under-voltage and over-current protection values (A02, A06, R09) to appropriate levels for your region and appliances. |
| Display shows incorrect voltage/current | Calibration error; External factors. | Use the voltage calibration setting (R12) to adjust the display. Compare with a known accurate voltmeter. |
