3.6. Resistance Measurement
To avoid electrical shock and damage to
the instrument when measuring
resistance, ensure power to the circuit is
OFF and all capacitors are discharged.
1. Turn the rotary switch to
Ω
.
2. Touch the test lead probe tips to the
desired point in the circuit and read the
measured resistance on the LCD.
If the resistance is above 20MΩ, the
LCD
displays
OL
.
3.7. Diode Check
To avoid electrical shock and damage to
the instrument when checking diodes,
ensure the power to the circuit is OFF
and all capacitors are discharged.
1. Turn the rotary switch to .
2. Connect the red test probe to the
anode side and black test lead to the
cathode side of the diode being tested.
