Digital Multimeter  (220-0181)         Features         Faxback Doc. # 8659

The Radio Shack Manual Ranging Digital Multimeter is a portable, 32/3-digit
meter ideal for field, lab, shop, bench, and home use.  It uses the latest
IC and display technology to achieve the lowest possible component count.
The true RMS converter is built into a single multimeter chip.  These
features make the meter easy to use and ensure reliable, accurate, stable,
and rugged operation.  Your meter also includes these features:

LCD Bargraph Display-makes nulls, peaks, and trends more apparent.

Transistor-Check Function-measures the gain (hfe) of small-signal bipolar 
transistors.

Data-Hold Function-freezes the display so you can view the reading even
after you disconnect the leads.

Continuity Function-quickly checks the continuity of wires or traces.

True RMS Operation-gives a more accurate reading for non-sine wave AC
measurements.

Full Auto-Polarity Operation-protects your meter and gives valid
measurements when you connect the leads in reverse polarity.

Effective Overload and Transient Protection-covers all ranges except DC/AC
10A range.

Diode-Check Function-safely checks semiconductors for open, shorted, or
normal junctions.

UL Listed-passes the stringent tests required by Underwriters
Laboratories for safety.
