Voltage Kalibrering:

Hvis voltage reading appears inaccurate, you can perform a calibration:

  1. Ensure the tester is not connected to any load.
  2. Tryk og hold funktionsknappen nede.
  3. While holding the button, connect the tester to a stable 5V power supply.
  4. Release the button once the display shows "5.000V". The calibration is complete.

Note: Do not exceed the specified voltage and current range (4-30V, 0-5A) when using the device.

6. Vedligeholdelse og pleje

  • Hold enheden ren og tør. Undgå udsættelse for fugt eller ekstreme temperaturer.
  • Handle the Type-C connectors with care to prevent bending or damage. The reinforced design improves durability, but excessive force can still cause issues.
  • Opbevar testeren et sikkert sted, når den ikke er i brug, for at forhindre fysisk skade.

7. Fejlfinding

  • Skærm lyser ikke op: Ensure the tester is correctly connected between a powered source and a device. If the source or device is faulty, the tester may not receive power.
  • Unøjagtig Voltage/Aktuelle aflæsninger: Perform the voltage calibration procedure as described in Section 5. Ensure all connections are secure.
  • Temperature Warning (Red Icon): If the temperature display turns red and flashes (above 45°C), immediately disconnect the tester and connected devices. Allow them to cool down before resuming use. This indicates potential overheating.
  • Loose Type-C Port: While the Type-C interface is reinforced, repeated rough handling can still cause wear. Ensure gentle insertion and removal of cables. If the port becomes excessively loose and affects functionality, contact customer support.
