Diode tests

Set up your multimeter as shown in the figure below to per-
form diode tests.

Auto-diode tests:
• The Auto-diode function tests both the forward bias and
reverse bias directions of your diode simultaneously. The
forward bias voltage is shown on the primary display and
the reverse bias voltage is shown on the secondary display.
• GOOD is shown briefly on the secondary display along with
a brief beep if the diode is found to be in good condition. If
the diode is out of the thresholds, NGOOD is shown instead.
