3. സജ്ജീകരണം

Before first use, ensure the multimeter is properly set up and test leads are connected securely.

1. ബാറ്ററി ഇൻസ്റ്റാളേഷൻ: The Fluke 87V Max typically comes with batteries pre-installed. If not, refer to the battery compartment on the rear of the device for proper installation. Ensure correct polarity.
2. Attaching the Holster: The removable holster provides protection and can be used as a test probe holder. Slide the multimeter into the holster until it fits snugly.
3. ടെസ്റ്റ് ലീഡുകൾ ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുന്നു: Insert the banana plugs of the test leads into the appropriate input jacks on the multimeter. For most measurements, the black lead connects to the COM (common) jack and the red lead connects to the VÅHz or mA/µA jack, depending on the measurement type. For current measurements up to 10A, use the 10A MAX FUSED jack.
4. MC4 Test Lead Bundle: For solar PV array measurements, connect the specialized MC4 test leads to the meter. These leads are designed for direct connection to MC4 connectors found on solar panels.
