4. Setup

4.1 Battery Installation

1. Ensure the meter is turned OFF.
2. Locate the battery compartment on the back of the meter.
3. Use a screwdriver to open the battery compartment cover.
4. Insert three (3) AAA 1.5V batteries, observing the correct polarity (+/-).
5. Replace the battery compartment cover and secure it with the screw.

The meter will display a low battery indicator when the batteries need replacement.

5. Operating Instructions

This section details how to perform various measurements using the VEVOR EM4370 Digital Clamp Meter.

5.1 Function Selection

Rotate the function dial to select the desired measurement mode. Use the 'SEL/FUNC' button to toggle between different sub-functions within a mode (e.g., AC/DC voltage, Diode/Continuity).

5.2 AC/DC Current Measurement (Clamp)

1. Turn the function dial to the '60A' or '600A' AC/DC current range.
2. Press the clamp trigger to open the clamp jaw.
3. Enclose only one conductor (wire) within the clamp jaw. Ensure the jaw is fully closed.
4. Read the current value on the LCD display.

5.3 AC/DC Voltage Measurement

1. Connect the red test lead to the 'VΩHzCAPTEMP' jack and the black test lead to the 'COM' jack.
2. Turn the function dial to the 'V' (Voltage) range. Use the 'SEL/FUNC' button to select AC or DC voltage.
3. Touch the test probes to the circuit points where voltage is to be measured.
4. Read the voltage value on the LCD display.

5.4 Resistance Measurement

1. Connect the test leads as for voltage measurement.
2. Turn the function dial to the 'Ω' (Resistance) range.
3. Ensure the circuit or component under test is de-energized before measuring resistance.
4. Touch the test probes across the component.
5. Read the resistance value on the LCD display.

5.5 Non-Contact Voltage (NCV) Detection

1. Turn the function dial to the 'NCV' position.
2. Move the NCV sensor (top part of the clamp jaw) close to the conductor or outlet.
3. The meter will beep and the NCV indicator light will flash when AC voltage is detected. The frequency of beeps and flashes increases with stronger voltage.

5.6 Temperature Measurement

1. Turn the function dial to the 'TEMP' position.
2. Connect the K-type thermocouple probe to the input jacks, observing polarity.
3. Place the tip of the thermocouple probe on or near the object whose temperature is to be measured.
4. Read the temperature value on the LCD display. Use the 'SEL/FUNC' button to switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F).

5.7 Other Functions

• True RMS: The meter features True RMS detection for accurate measurements of non-sinusoidal AC waveforms.
• Data Hold: Press the 'HOLD/LIGHT' button briefly to freeze the current reading on the display. Press again to release.
• Backlight & Flashlight: Press and hold the 'HOLD/LIGHT' button to turn on/off the display backlight and the integrated flashlight.
• MAX/MIN Measurement: Press the 'MAX/MIN' button to record the maximum and minimum values during a measurement session.
• Capacitance: Select the 'CAP' range on the dial. Ensure capacitors are discharged before testing.
• Frequency/Duty Cycle: Select the 'Hz%' range on the dial.
• Diode Test & Continuity: Select the 'Diode/Continuity' range. Use 'SEL/FUNC' to switch between modes. Continuity test will beep if resistance is below a certain threshold.
• Smart Sleep Mode: The meter automatically powers off after approximately 15 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life.
