 Resistance,
Continuity, nS Conductance functions
Press the SELECT button momentarily to select the subject functions in sequence.
Last selection will be saved as power up default for repeat measurement convenience.
Note:
Conductance is the inverse of Resistance, that is S=1/ or nS=1/G. It virtually
extends the Resistance measurements to the order of Giga-Ohms for leakage
measurements.
Continuity function is convenient for checking wiring connections and operation of
switches. A continuous beep tone indicates a complete wire.
CAUTION
Using resistance and continuity function in a live circuit will produce false results and
may damage the instrument. In many cases the suspected component must be
disconnected from the circuit to obtain an accurate reading
A, mA (DCmA with %4-20mA) and A Current functions
Press SELECT button momentarily to select DC, DC , DC+AC and AC . Last
+AC +AC +Hz
selection will be saved as power up default for repeat measurement convenience.
In DC mA function, neither in AC nor DC+AC selection, loop-current percentage (%4-
20mA) reading is displayed simultaneously. It is set at 4mA = 0% (zero) and 20mA =
100% (span) with 0.01% high resolution for testing and monitoring externally powered
