The optional remote control probe is used to trigger the measurement using the TEST button on the probe. To use this
accessory, refer to its separate operating instructions.
When the probe is connected, the

2.3.3 Continuity Measurement

Continuity measurement measures a low resistance (<10 or 100Ω depending on the current) at a high current (200 or
20mA).
A current of 20mA reduces the power consumption of the instrument, increasing its battery life. However, the
standard IEC 61557 requires 200mA current for continuity testing.
If an external voltage >15V is detected in the system under test during the continuity measurement, the instrument
is protected without a fuse. The continuity measurement is stopped and the instrument reports an error until the
voltage disappears.
