Figure 4. Function Press Button
1. SELECT (state choice)
There are several functions at one rotary switch position; press the
SELECT button to select the desired function: ~V ,
Ω
, Hz,
TEMP
,
μA~ , mA~ , A~ range for AC or DC voltage, AC or DC current,
resistance, diode, or audible continuity measurement.
2. RANGE (range selection)
With the power on and the meter on the auto range mode, press
the
RANGE button to select the desired measurement range
manually. The range goes from minimum to maximum by pressing
the
RANGE button multiple times, and returns to minimum after
reaching the maximum range. Pressing and holding the RANGE
button for over two seconds returns the meter to auto range. This
button does not affect the frequency, capacitance, diode or
continuity range.

Measuring Temperature
Warning
To avoid the potential of fire or electrical shock, do not
connect the thermocouples to electrically live circuits.
To measure temperature, proceed as follows:
1. Turn on the meter, then set up the meter as shown in Figure 17.
2. Set the Function Rotary Switch to the TEMP position (then, the “°F”
and “ ” symbols are indicated on the display).
3. Plug the positive leg (+) of the type K thermocouples into the
terminal and the negative leg (–) into the COM terminal
and read the value on the display. The range of the TP-03
thermocouples is –58
O F~+1292 O F.
4. Unplugging the thermocouples will display the ambient
temperature at the meter terminals.
