Ordered this meter, but it came with no instruction manual. Can you send me a manual? It would be helpful for obvious reasons.

I will look to see if they sent me one. They may not have. In the mean time Google, "how to use an analog multi meter"

Neither do mine. But you can google on how to use it or buy a book on how to use it. I got mine at amazon for 5 bucks.

I bought this meter, too. I think that you probably have someone else do the work you intended to do if you need a manual for an analog mm. Very simple and straight forward meter that does not require a manual.

Check out their website. If you don't find anything there, email the company and request another manual.

These are cheap little Meters. Very finicky. Yours sounds like it is faulty. My suggestion would be to return it for a new one.

Assuming that the meter worked properly in the past, I would make sure that the wiring connections to the meter are clean and secure. The possibility of corrosion increases with time. If this issue has come on slowly, corrosion may well be the culprit. Good luck.

I didn't get an instruction manual with mine either. I googled for it! Good luck!

It's been awhile since I used this meter with the USB connection to a PC. However, it did work, except, I think, for frequency, which was junk. I don't know what to suggest except to reinstall the software. I think originally I used an XP laptop. As per the other response you got today make sure you have the correct drivers installed. That is just as important as the software itself. I am now using a W7 machine and have not tried the software on that platform. You don't mention what you are using.

I don't know, because I don't use the meter. The battery never worked and when we called FreeStyle they told us that Amazon is not a official distributer, therefore they were not able to help me set up the meter. I tried following the user manual, but with the battery being bad I could not use the meter. I tried contacting Amazon but unable to fix.

Sorry I can't help you on this yet. I bought these units to give me readouts on my battery supplies for my solar power system and I won't be putting the system together until this summer. The meters are in Montana at my cabin and I will be here in North Dakota working until spring. So don't have access to them or the paperwork that may have come with them.

Hi Mike, Although I have never put a meter on my unit it should run at the standard 60 HZ as in your home. It has run all equipment flawlessly including computer, drill and ultrasound machine. Excellent inverter! Dr.C

Here's a link to the manual. If you cannot access that, I can send, or email you a copy. http://www.heath-zenith.com//data/manuals/595-5578-09.pdf

This meter works well but: you have to make sure you buy an 12 volt 100 amp meter . I neglected to check that and I received a 12 volt 1 (one) amp meter ( useless) for that much amperage you'll also need a shunt and from here you are on your own because your meter must match the shunt or nothing will work . Good luck .

I soldered a short piece of #14 solid wire to the two voltage leads and covered with heat shrink tubing. Then I put these leads under the lugs of my sub-panel(feed from my generator) to read the incoming voltage from the generator. The meter comes with a coil which is placed around the circuit wire, this generates a very small current in the coil which the meter converts to the actual amperage, therefore the coil wire is carrying very little current. I hope this helps.

Thank you for this answer. I thought I had a defective unit. How is this not talked about in the manual? Anyway, thanks again.

It is not connected to anything on the board. While in use I get nothing on my meter.

Check your paper work that came with meter. Other than that, I have had no problem with mine. I set it for what I want to check and it works just fine. Your meter and mine are the same.

Not even sure what a kind of meter that is. Sorry. I will say you will be better off buying one of the better ( Higher priced) units. You can hook the sensors right on the wires inside the circuit box in the house. This one is cheap junk with no support and are not even sold by B&D; anymore.
