4. Njia za Uendeshaji
The V200 supports four primary working modes, easily switchable with a single button press.
- DC Voltage Mtihani: Detects the DC voltage value of the circuit under test with 0.1V resolution.
- Voltage Mtihani: Detects Max/Min voltage, frequency, and duty cycle of the AC circuit.
- Mtihani wa Upinzani: Measures resistance between the probe tip and the auxiliary ground lead.
- Mtihani wa Diode: Determines the operation and conductivity of diode assemblies.

5. Kazi Muhimu
5.1 Polarity Identification
The V200 automatically identifies circuit polarity. A red LED indicates a positive connection, while a green LED indicates a negative connection. No LED indicates an open circuit.

8. Matengenezo
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your VDIAGTOOL V200, follow these general maintenance guidelines:
- Keep the device clean and free from dust, dirt, and moisture.
- Store the tester and its accessories in the provided sturdy case when not in use.
- Inspect cables and connectors regularly for any signs of wear or damage. Replace if necessary.
- Epuka kuweka kifaa kwenye joto kali au jua moja kwa moja kwa muda mrefu.
9. Utatuzi wa shida
If you encounter issues with your VDIAGTOOL V200, consider the following:
- Kifaa Kisichowashwa: Ensure secure connections to the vehicle's battery or cigarette lighter. Verify the vehicle's power source is active.
- No Reading/Incorrect Reading: Check that the probe tip is making good contact with the circuit. Ensure the correct operating mode is selected.
- Ulinzi wa Kupakia Zaidi Umeanzishwa: If the device shuts down with a beep, it indicates an overload. Disconnect the probe, allow a few moments, and then reconnect. Reduce the load or verify the circuit's specifications before retesting.
- Masuala ya Skrini: If the screen is blank or unresponsive, try disconnecting and reconnecting the power source.
