Resistance Measurements
WARNING:
Never test resistance
on a live circuit.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
2. Press the MODE button until the
" " symbol appears on the display.
3. Insert the black test lead into the
COM input jack and the red test
lead into the
input jack.
4. Touch the test lead probes to the
component under test. If the
component is installed in a circuit,
it is best to disconnect one side before testing
to eliminate interference from other devices.
5. Read the resistance on the LCD display.
Diode Test
WARNING:
Never test diodes
on a live circuit.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
2. Press the MODE button until the
" " symbol appears on the display.
3. Insert the black test lead into the
COM input jack and the red test
lead into the
input jack.
4. Touch the test lead probes to the
diode under test.
5. Forward voltage will indicate 0.4 to
0.7 on the display. Reverse voltage
will indicate "OL". Shorted devices will indicate near 0
and an open device will indicate "OL" in both polarities.
