UNI-T UT61E Auto Power Off, Part 3

It's tested and functional. I tested with just an IR LED hooked up to a power supply and the meter enabled and disabled the auto power off feature.

On the serial cable, I placed a jumper between pin 2 on the d-sub connector and R2 (red box). A 10k resistor was also put down (purple box). Oh yeah, and the IR emitter too (orange circle).


Again, all circuit diagrams used can be found here. Thanks Mr. Herbert!
