1) Insert the testleads as showing in the above figure;
2) Turn the rotary switch to the
range;
3) Connect the testleads across with the object being measured;
4) The measured value shows on the display
5) If needed, press
to switch to manual ranging, press again to
change the range selected. Hold down the same button to return
to auto ranging.
Note :
• The testleads can add 0.1
to 0.3
of error to resistance measurements.
To test the leads, touch the probe tips together and read the resistance
of the leads. If necessary, you can use the relative (REL) mode to
automatically subtract this value.
• The measured value of a resistor in a circuit is often different from the
resistor’s rated value.
• The resistance function can produce enough voltage to forward-bias
silicon diode or transistor junctions, causing them to conduct. If this is
suspected, press
to apply a lower current in the next higher range. If
the value is higher, use the higher value.
F. CONTINUITY TEST
Warning
• To avoid electric shock, do not test on circuits or devices with 60V
DC or 30V rms AC.
