4.6 Continuity Measurement
WARNING: When testing continuity, make
sure that there is no power in the tested
sample or circuit (dead circuit). This may be
checked by using the voltage functions.
■ Turn the rotary range switch to the
■ Insert red test lead to the red + input jack and the black
lead to the black COM input jack.
■ Bring the test probe tips into contact with the sample
under test.
■ If the resistance is less than 40 Ω, the beeper emits a
continuous sound. The readings on the display are not
valid.
■ If overload (OL) is displayed, the resistance exceeds the
measurement range or the circuit is open.
WARNING: Immediately unclamp the meter
from the conductor under test if overload
is displayed.
