How to use M tester TC1 Multifunction tester
The short necessary information before using the Multifunction tester TC1 or the other multifunction test ( M tester) has the same function as model TC1. According to its specification the multifunction tester can test basic electronic components such as resistor capacitor inductor and semiconductor device such as diode zener diode LED transistor mosfet IGBT triac SCR ect. It almost cover the component on PCB repairing. The key feature that it can automatically identify pin of component and super easy to use.
Multifunction tester , non-rechargeable version and lower cost
The first necessary information before using , it need to know that socket arrangement and it name. Put the right terminal to the right socket function. Don't put too big terminal to socket ,in this case please use additional test leads. Additional test leads its purpose for testing big components and not easy to bend terminals. For capacitor testing always discharge capacitor before testing
Socket arrangement and terminal function for the right terminal insertion
Additional test leads for testing big components and big terminals
Example testing of Multifunction tester
1. Zener Diode test. Insert a zener diode to KAA socket , Kathode terminal to K socket and Anode terminal to A socket. If is is a good Zener , display will show component name and the specification of zener diode as it should be.
Zener Diode test and insert area at KAA
2. Two terminal components testing. Such as resistor , capacitor , inductor , diode ect. Insert component to any 123 socket. In case of big terminals component use addition test leads. The display will show component detail what it should be. The bad component the display will show in different way.
2 terminal components insert to 1233 socket
2 terminal components insert to 1233 socket
Always discharge capacitor before testing , non-discharge capacitor may damage the tester.
Big terminal component use an additional test leads
3. Three terminal components testing such as transistor SCR mosfet IGBT etc. Insert the component terminal to 1233 socket and press the button. The tester will show the right component name and its specification as it should be , including , automatically identify terminal function of components.
3 terminal components testing , insert to 1233 socket
3 terminal components testing , insert to 1233 socket
In case of damage part display , try new socket area and also try a new component and compare testing result.
