The HYELEC MS8236 is a 6000 counts, CAT III (1000V) / CAT IV (600V) handheld digital multimeter with USB connectivity.
See HYELEC MS8236/Info for more details (such as lsusb -v output) about the device.
Hardware
- 8-bit MCU with 4x40 LCD driver and 18-bit ADC: Hycontek HY11P14 (datasheet, user's guide)
- USB to serial IC: WCN CH340G (datasheet)

Standard USB to miniUSB.
Protocol
TODO.
The device's LCD segments are layed out as follows:
G | ||
C | F | |
B | ||
A | E | |
D |
To the left of each LCD digit there is another segment which represents a dot / decimal point (DP).
An LCD segment is represented in the protocol as follows:
Bit 7 | Bit 6 | Bit 5 | Bit 4 | Bit 3 | Bit 2 | Bit 1 | Bit 0 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
DP | A | B | C | D | E | F | G |
Example: In the protocol a byte of 0x3F (0 0111111) represents the digit 9 on the LCD, where the decimal point is not displayed (bit 7 is not set). All other bits except for bit 6 (segment A, see above) are set, i.e. the respective LCD segments are displayed.
