3.2.6 Continuity/Diode Test

Function
If measured resistance
is less than 50Ω, the
buzzer will sound.
The display shows the
approx. forward
voltage drop
Overload Protection: 250V DC or AC rms; do not exceed
15 sec. continuous measurement.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 DC/AC Voltage

Warning
Max. input voltage: 600V DC or AC rms (200mV
range is 250V DC or AC rms).
Do not exceed the protection limits to prevent
electric shock and/or damage to the meter.
• Turn the rotary switch to the proper voltage range.
• Connect the red test lead to the V input jack and the black
test lead to the COM jack.
• Connect the leads to the voltage source or circuit under test.
• Read the measured voltage on the display.When measuring
DC voltage, the display will show the polarity of the red lead.
• If the display only shows "1", it indicates the input exceeds
the selected range.Move the rotary switch to a higher range.

4.2 Resistance

Warning
Turn off all power and discharge all capacitors
completely before making resistance
measurements.
Turn the rotary switch to the proper voltage range.
Connect the red test lead to the Ω input jack and the
black test lead to the COM jack.
Connect the leads to the resistance or circuit under test
and read the measured resistance on the display.
When measuring low resistances, short the test leads
and record the measurement.Then connect the leads to
the resistance to be measured and subtract the shorted
resistance.
