Testing for Continuity

XWCaution
To avoid possible damage to the Meter or to
the equipment under test, disconnect circuit
power and discharge all high-voltage
capacitors before testing for continuity.
The continuity test features a beeper that sounds as long
as a circuit is complete. The beeper allows you to perform
quick continuity tests without having to watch the display.
To test for continuity, set up the Meter as shown in
Figure 3 .
Press Eto turn the continuity beeper on or off.
The continuity function detects intermittent opens and
shorts lasting as little as 1ms. A brief short causes the
Meter to emit a short beep.
