5. Turn ON the equipment by pressing the
On/Off
switch. The ON
led
begins to bright.
6. Press the
Start
key. Then the high-voltage generator starts
operating and the corresponding indication light turns On at the front
panel. The meter pointer will indicate the value of the unknown
resistance. If the element to be measured is strongly capacitive it will
initially indicate a low resistance value, which will be gradually
increased while the charging of that capacitance takes place. The
instrument will always begin in the scale
A
.
7. When the measured resistance exceeds the maximum value in range
A
, press range
B
key, and if still the value is not achieved, press keys
ranges
C
or
Cx10
, as required.
8. Always remember to multiply the reading by the factor stated in the
following table, depending on selected test voltage:
