  • Page 9: Resistance Measurements

    Relative mode is active. Short press the REL button to exit the relative mode. NOTE: When measuring resistance >1MΩ the meter may require several seconds to obtain a stable reading. Fig. 4 – Resistance Measurements MA610-en-GB_V1.0 12/16 GlobalTestSupply www. .com d Quality Products Online at: sales@GlobalTestSupply.c...
  • Page 10: Continuity Measurements

    If the resistance is < 10Ω, the meter will beep. If the resistance is > 70Ω, the meter will not beep. If the resistance is between 10 and 70Ω, the meter will stop beeping at an unspecified point.
