The purpose of this Article is to show you how to turn on the WiFi function and connect it to your computer for the following Instruments. Fluke-1732, Fluke-1734, Fluke-1736 and Fluke-1738.

The Fluke-1732 does not ship with the WiFi adapter so you would need to purchase the D-Link DWA-131 adapter from a local store or online, Fluke does not sell that item.

The Fluke-1734, Fluke-1736 and Fluke-1738 come with the D-Link DWA-131 WiFi adapter. The WiFi adapter needs to be plugged into the USB port inside the battery compartment. You need to remove the Power Supply block on the back of the meter and then remove the battery door by removing the four screws and remove the battery pack. Plug the WiFi adapter into the USB port.
