Continuity Testing; Diode Test - Parkside PDM 300 C2 Operating Instructions And Safety Instructions

For resistances > 1MΩ, the measurement may take a few seconds. In this
case, wait until the reading has stabilised.
For measurements of lower resistances (200 Ω range), the resistance of the
device's own measurement cables can distort the reading. In order to avoid
this, note down the reading for the measurement with the measurement
probes short-circuited, and subtract this from the actual measurement
reading.

7.7 Continuity testing

CAUTION! Make sure that all circuit components, circuits and parts to be
measured are disconnected and discharged. Otherwise the multimeter
could get damaged.
• Connect the black measurement cable to the COM connection [4] and the
red measurement cable to the
• Set the range selector switch [3] to the
• Connect the measurement probes [6] to the object to be measured.
• If the resistance is under about 30 Ω, the buzzer sounds and the measured
reading is shown on the display [1].

7.8 Diode test

CAUTION! Make sure that all circuit components, circuits and parts to be
measured are disconnected and discharged. Otherwise the multimeter
