measuring resistance
5.7.1.
Connect the black test lead to the COm terminal and the red test lead to the
5.7.2.
Set the function switch to the Ω position.
5.7.3.
Connect the test leads across the object to be tested.
5.7.4.
Read the reading on the display.
Note:
(i) If the resistance is more than 1MΩ it may take several seconds for the reading to stabilise. This is normal for high resistance
measurements.
(ii) If the input terminals are in an open circuit state, the over range indicator "ol" will be shown on the display.
(iii) Before measurement, disconnect all power to the circuit to be tested and discharge all capacitors thoroughly.
5.8.
diode test
5.8.1.
Connect the black test lead to the
5.8.2.
Set the function range switch to the
5.8.3.
Connect the red test lead to the anode of the diode to be tested and the black test lead to the cathode of the diode.
5.8.4.
Read the approximate forward voltage drop of the diode on the display.
5.9.
Continuity test
Connect the black test lead to the COm terminal and the red test lead to the
5.9.1.
5.9.2.
Set the range function switch to the
5.9.3.
Connect the test leads across the circuit to be tested.
5.9.4.
If the resistance is less than about 50Ω, the built-in buzzer will sound.
Note:
Before test, disconnect all power to the circuit to be tested and discharge all capacitors thoroughly.
5.10.
Automatic power Off
5.10.1.
If the meter has not been used, or the function switch rotated for about 15 minutes, the meter will turn off automatically and go into
Sleep mode.
