Dead or defective battery

Broken wire from battery
snap to PCB

Won’t display DC

Open fuse

microamp readings

• Open test lead

Improperly connected to
circuit under test

All functions except

Very weak battery that will

ohms read high

not turn on the low battery
indicator on the LCD

AC Volts do not read

Non-Contact Voltage

The non-contact voltage feature

does not work

works best when used to test a
single wire. Make sure the arrow
on the jaw is pointed at the wire.

The meter beeps when

This is a reminder to remove the

set on TEMP

test leads and insert the temper-
ature probe. If a probe is insert-
ed, this is an indication the probe
is open.

AC Amps does not read

Make sure the jaw is clamped
around a single wire and the
device connected to the wire is
turned on.

Application Notes

(Temperature Differential)

When measuring temperature there may be applica-

tions when knowing the differential between two mea-

surements is required. This can be accompished by

following these steps.

Remove the test leads from the input jacks. Insert

the K-type thermocouple probe into the input jack
on the 275. Set the 275 to the desired TEMP
function.

Touch the temperature probe sensor to the device

under test (T1).

When the reading stabilizes, press the REL but-

ton. The display will read “0” and T1 will be
stored as the reference value that the next mea-
surement will be made relative to.

Touch the temperature probe sensor to the device

under test (T2).

The 275 will display the differential temperature

T2-T1.
