Beeper Response In Continuity Test - Fluke 87 TRUE RMS MULTIMETER User Manual

OFF
Power to the meter is turned off.
K
Volts ac
Autoranges to the 400 mV, 4V, 40V, 400V or 1000V
range.
L
Volts dc
Autoranges to the 4V, 40V, 400V or 1000V range.
l Millivolts dc
Single 400 mV range.
ReE
Resistance ( ), conductance (1/ ),
capacitance or continuity R testing.
Press BLUE button to toggle between the resistance
and capacitance function. (The response of the
display and the pushbuttons slows down in the
capacitance mode.)
Autoranges to the 400 , 4 k , 40 k , 400 k , 4 M ,
or 40 M resistance range.
In Manual Ranging mode, 40 nS conductance range
(equal to a 25-100,000 M
item 9.)
Autoranges to the 05.00 nF, .0500 F, 0.500 F, or
05.00 F capacitance range.
When testing continuity, the beeper sounds if the
resistance falls below the typical values indicated in
Table 3.
