Although this manual contains calibration information for Models 1587 and 1577, all illustrations and examples assume use of the Model 1587. Table 1 provides a description of all the symbols used in this manual. The Meter meets CAT III and CAT IV IEC 61010 standards. The IEC 61010 standard defines four measurement categories (CAT I to IV) based on the magnitude of danger from transient impulses. CAT III meters are designed to protect against transients in fixed equipment installations at the distribution level; CAT IV meters are designed to protect against transients from the primary supply level (overhead or underground utility service). Safety Information XWWarning To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines: · Use the Meter only as specified in this manual or the protection provided by the Meter might be impaired. · Do not use the Meter or test leads if they appear damaged, or if the Meter is not operating properly. If in doubt, have the Meter serviced. · Always use the proper terminal, switch position, and range for measurements before connecting the Meter to circuit under test. · Verify that the Meter is operational by measuring a known voltage. · Do not apply more than the rated voltage as marked on the Meter, between the terminals or between any terminal and earth ground. · Use caution with voltages above 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc. These voltages pose a shock hazard. · Replace the battery as soon as the low battery indicator (b) appears. · Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or capacitance. · Do not use the Meter around explosive gas or vapor. · When using the test leads, keep your fingers behind the finger guards. · Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter case or battery door. Never operate the Meter with the back case removed or the battery door open. · Comply with local and national safety requirements when working in hazardous locations. · Use proper protective equipment, as required by local or national authorities when working in hazardous areas. · Avoid working alone. · Use only the replacement fuse specified or the protection may be impaired. · Check the test leads for continuity before use. Do not use if the readings are high or noisy. B F X b ~ Table 1. Description of Symbols Used in the Manual AC (Alternating Current) DC (Direct Current) WARNING: risk of electric shock.

Basic Maintenance This basic maintenance section of the manual contains tests and procedures that require no equipment other than the Meter and some consumables such as fuses and batteries. Also, internal access is limited to the battery and fuse compartment. Cleaning When cleaning is necessary, wipe the Meter with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents. Dirt or moisture on the terminals can affect readings. Testing the Batteries Under Load XWWarning To avoid electrical shock or personal injury, replace the batteries as soon as the battery indicator (b) appears. A weak battery can cause false readings. Before testing the batteries, turn the Meter to B. If b appears on the display, the batteries are weak; replace them. If the display is blank, batteries may not be present in the Meter, or they may be completely discharged; install new batteries. The following procedure tests the batteries under load: 1. Depress the h while turning the rotary switch to INSULATION. 2. Read the display. The displayed voltage should be 5.2 V or greater. If voltage is lower than 5.2 V, replace the batteries and repeat this test. 6 static awareness A Message From Fluke Corporation Some semiconductors and custom IC's can be damaged by electrostatic discharge during handling. This notice explains how you can minimize the chances of destroying such devices by: 1. Knowing that there is a problem. 2. Learning the guidelines for handling them. 3. Using the procedures, packaging, and bench techniques that are recommended. The following practices should be followed to minimize damage to S.S. (static sensitive) devices. 1. MINIMIZE HANDLING 3. DISCHARGE PERSONAL STATIC BEFORE HANDLING DEVICES. USE A HIGH RESISTANCE GROUNDING WRIST STRAP. 2. KEEP PARTS IN ORIGINAL CONTAINERS UNTIL READY FOR USE. 4. HANDLE S.S. DEVICES BY THE BODY. 5. USE STATIC SHIELDING CONTAINERS FOR HANDLING AND TRANSPORT. 8. WHEN REMOVING PLUG-IN ASSEMBLIES HANDLE ONLY BY NON-CONDUCTIVE EDGES AND NEVER TOUCH OPEN EDGE CONNECTOR EXCEPT AT STATIC-FREE WORK STATION. PLACING SHORTING STRIPS ON EDGE CONNECTOR HELPS PROTECT INSTALLED S.S. DEVICES. 6. DO NOT SLIDE S.S. DEVICES OVER ANY SURFACE. 9. HANDLE S.S. DEVICES ONLY AT A STATIC-FREE WORK STATION. 10. ONLY ANTI-STATIC TYPE SOLDERSUCKERS SHOULD BE USED. 11. ONLY GROUNDED-TIP SOLDERING IRONS SHOULD BE USED. 7. AVOID PLASTIC,VINYL AND STYROFOAM® IN WORK AREA.

Disassembling the Meter Top Case ebp04f.eps 10 Insulation Multimeters Disassembling and Reassembling the Meter Removing the Boot The standard Meter comes equipped with a snug-fitting yellow rubber boot. The boot helps protect the Meter from rough handling and is normally left on the Meter. The first step in disassembling the Meter is to remove the boot. Use the following procedure to remove the boot: 1. Looking at the front of the Meter, place your thumbs on the top corners of the boot and firmly grasp the Meter. 2. Using both thumbs, push the boot up and over both corners of the Meter. 3. Continue pushing on the boot until both of its inside corners are resting on top of the Meter. 4. Now, rest the heel of one hand behind the display, and place all four fingers of the same hand along the upper front edge of the boot. 5. Firmly grasp the Meter with the other hand, and using your fingers, peel the boot over the top of the Meter. 6. Slide the Meter up and out of the boot. When installing the boot, position the bottom of the Meter in the bottom of the boot, and press the top of the instrument firmly into of the boot. Removing the Battery Door XWWarning To avoid the risk of electrical shock, turn the rotary switch to OFF, and remove the test leads from the front-panel terminals before removing the battery cover. With the boot removed, the next step in disassembling the Meter is to remove the battery door. Use the following procedure to remove the door: 1. Locate the black slotted lock on the lower rear of the Meter. 2. Using a standard screwdriver, turn the battery-door lock until the unlock symbol (l) aligns with the arrow. The door is now unlocked. 3. Lift the bottom of the battery door away from the Meter. Removing the battery door provides access to the fuse and battery compartment. 4. If necessary, remove and replace the batteries and/or fuse as shown in Figure 2. When installingl the battery door, first, slide the top of the door into position, and then, secure it by turning the battery door lock until the lock symbol (L) aligns with the arrow. 11 1587/1577 Calibration Removing the Bottom Case With the battery door removed, the next step in disassembling the Meter is to remove the bottom case. Use the following procedure to remove the bottom case: Note When removing the back case, it is not necessary to remove the fuse or the batteries. 1. Locate the four Phillips head screws on the bottom case, two next to the batteries and two next to the fuse. 2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the four screws. 3. Separate the front and bottom cases at the fuse-end of the Meter. Tilt the freed end of the case up, and lift it away from the top case. To install the bottom case, first, position and press together the display-end of the top and bottom cases. Then, prior to installing all four screws, press the fuse-end of the cases together. Removing the PCA With the bottom case removed, the next step in disassembling the Meter is to remove the printed circuit assembly (PCA). Refer to Figure 4 and use the following procedure to remove the PCA: 1. One Phillips screw attaches the PCA to the top case. Locate the screw near the center of the PCA, and remove it. 2. Two chrome-plated springs on the PCA form an electrical connection (clip) to the two recessed INSULATION(+) terminals on the top case. Break these connections by carefully pulling each of the springs back and away from the terminals. See Figure 5. 3. With one hand over the PCA, roll the top case over (face up) and lift it away from the PCA. Note Three red and one black plastic shields are used to isolate the user from the input terminals. With the PCA removed, these shields are loose and can fall away from the PCA. 4. Remove and set aside all four shields for use during reassembly. XWWarning To avoid risk of electrical shock, make sure the plastic input terminals are properly positioned on the PCA before attaching it to the top case. When installing the PCA, proceed as follows: 1. With the PCA face-up, place all four plastic shields into position on the PCA. 2. Lower the top case onto the PCA, and roll both parts over (PCA up). 3. Connect (snap) the chrome-plated springs to the INSULATION terminals. 4. Install the screw that attaches the PCA to the top case. 12 Insulation Multimeters Disassembling and Reassembling the Meter Figure 5. Insulation Terminal Clips ebp11f.eps Removing the LCD With the PCA removed, the final step in disassembling the Meter is to remove the LCD assembly from the PCA. Refer to Figure 6 and use the following procedure to remove the LCD assembly: 1. Remove the two screws from the display end of the PCA. 2. Hold the PCA face down with the fuse-end of the PCA toward you. Locate the screw-hole near the center of the assembly. This hole is the one used to attach (with a screw) the PCA to the top case. 3. Now, locate the gray plastic tab just above and to the left of the hole. Using your thumbnail press the tab down and toward the display end of the PCA. This will release the LCD assembly from the PCA. W Caution To avoid damaging the plastic guide pins on the LCD assembly, keep the LCD assembly parallel to the PCA when separating the two parts. 4. Without tilting the PCA, lift it straight up and away from the LCD assembly. 5. To keep loose parts from falling away from the LCD assembly, keep it facedown, and set it in a safe place. Replacing the LCD The LCD assembly consists of four pieces as shown in Figure 6: · Translucent light-dispersing back panel · Flexible elastomeric conducting strip · Plastic Bezel for housing the assembly's components · Glass LCD display With the LCD assembly removed from the PCA, use the following procedure to replace the LCD: 1. Lift the translucent light-dispersing back panel off of the plastic bezel. 2. Remove the elastomeric strip from its slot in the bezel. 13 1587/1577 Calibration 3. Remove the old glass LCD display from the bezel. Note Make sure the new LCD display is clean (free of lint and finger prints) before placing it in position in the bezel. 4. Position the new glass LCD display in the bezel; the silver face should face the rear, and the stepped portion of the glass should be directly under the elastomeric slot on the bezel. 5. Drop the elastomeric strip into its slot on the bezel. 6. Position the translucent light-dispersing back panel over the silver side of the glass LCD display. Make sure the guide pins on the light dispersing back panel are facing up and that they are on the side opposite the elastomeric strip. 7. While holding the LCD assembly (face down) in one hand, position the PCA (fuse side up) over the bezel; match the guide holes in the PCA with the plastic guide pins on the bezel and the translucent light dispersing back panel. After the LCD assembly is in position, lock it in place by pressing (below the display) the bezel against the PCA; listen for the tab on the bezel to snap (lock) into position on the PCA. 8. Secure the PCA to the LCD assembly by installing the two screws that attach the PCA to the bezel. These screws also ensure contact between the glass LCD display, the elastomeric strip, and the PCA.

If the password is not correct, the UUT emits a double beep, displays ?.?.?.? and the password must be entered again. Repeat step 4. 6. Using Table 6, apply the input value listed for each calibration adjustment step. For each step, position the rotary switch and apply the input to the terminals as indicated in the table. 7. After each input value is applied, press G to accept the value and proceed to the next step (C-02 and so forth). Note After pressing G, wait until the step number advances before changing the calibrator source or turning the rotary switch. If the rotary switch is not in the correct position, or if the measured value is not within the anticipated range of the input value, the UUT emits a double beep and will not continue to the next step. Some adjustment steps take longer to execute than others (10 to 15 seconds). For these steps, the UUT will beep when the step is complete. Not all steps have this feature. 8. After the final step, the display shows End to indicate that the calibration adjustment is complete. Press G to go to meter mode. Note Set the calibrator to Standby prior to changing the function switch position and/or after completing adjustment of each function. If the calibration adjustment procedure is not completed correctly, the UUT will not operate correctly. 25 1587/1577 Calibration Switch Position (Function) AC Volts DC Volts DC Millivolts Ohms Continuity Diode Test milliamps Insulation Table 6.
