Continuity
Caution: The continuity mode passes a very
small amount of current to 'test' each of the
circuits that it is connected to. As more mod-
ern equipment uses computer-type process-
ing boards to control equipment, some may
be designed that have functions that might be
activated by the ZebraStat 's tiny (about 7 mil-
liamps) of current to test the different circuits.
Be aware that some circuits might possibly
be activated while testing in Continuity Mode.
(For instance, don't test continuity on equip-
ment if your hand is near the fan. It could start
during this test. Ditto for the condensing unit.)
5) Place the Mode Switch to the Continuity
Position. Green LED's should illuminate un-
der each component being tested. No light
probably indicates an incomplete circuit. A
yellow LED indicates the component under
test is currently ACTIVATED; the LED will
change back to green when activation is re-
moved. Control boards on some new variable
speed units may give false positive indications.
