Page 26: Operation
If the signal measured is >45V peak, the audio indication is acti- vated if the V-Live function is selected (see § 2.6.2). For voltages ≥600V or Trms, a repetitive beep of the buzzer indicates that the measured voltage is higher than the acceptable safety voltage (OL). Audio Continuity Test - 1. Connect the measurement conductors to the terminals. 2. Set the rotary switch to the “ ” position. 3. Connect the unit to the circuit to be tested. The buzzer is contin- uously active as soon as contact is established (circuit closed) and if the resistance value measured is lower than the threshold value chosen by the programming (adjustable from 1 to 40Ω,). NOTE: Above 400Ω, the display indicates OL. ShopAEMC www. 1.877.766.5412 Shop for AEMC products online at: Clamp-on Multimeter Model F09... -

2. Set the rotary switch to the “ ” position and press twice on the yellow button; the symbol is displayed. 3. Connect the unit to the semi-conductor (junction) to be tested. • The measurement current moves from the “+” terminal to the “COM” terminal. It corresponds to the direct testing of the semi-conductor junction.
