CAUTION
Never use the resistance meter to measure voltage.

Zero Adjust With Alligator Clip Leads

  1. Power on the Hioki resistance meter, and allow a few minutes for it to thermally stabilize.
  2. Plug the alligator clip leads into the resistance meter.
    Informational PurposesAn informational icon, calling your attention
    Note
    Both the positive (red) and negative (black) lead connectors have arrows or marks that align to arrows on the resistance meter.
  3. Use the up arrow and down arrow buttons to set the resistance meter to the 3mΩ range.
  4. Attach the alligator clips together so that the red clip "bites" the upper jaw of the black clip, and that the "V" on each clip is up.
  5. Verify that a resistance is displayed.

    Note
    If " -.- - - - " (no value) is displayed, check the lead connections to the resistance meter and the how the clips attach together.
  6. Press and hold the 0ADJ button to start the zero adjust operation.

    Note
    The text "0 ADJ" blinks in the upper right corner of the resistance meter's display.
  7. Approximately 2 seconds later, the resistance meter beeps and "0 ADJ" is now constant.

    Note
    If " FAiL " is displayed, check the clips, the leads, and the connection to the resistance meter, and repeat from step #GUID-87FD8D3D-05FF-471F-B2AC-EC4D65ED3E08__GUID-9B169B6A-5DB2-4049-94E4-EE4B14F2D359.
  8. Detach the clips from each other and unplug the leads from the resistance meter.

    CAUTION
    Do not change the range, otherwise the resistance meter must be zero adjusted again.
  9. Plug the Hioki 9461 test probe leads or the 3+1_point contactor probe leads into the resistance meter.

    Note
    Align the arrows of the lead connectors to the arrows on the resistance meter.
  10. The resistance meter is now ready to measure resistance. Return to the procedure that required the zero adjust to be performed.
