Continuity Test

Background

Continuity test checks that the resistance in the DUT is
low enough to be considered continuous (of conductive

nature).

1. Activate
continuity test

Press the

key twice.

2. Continuity
mode display
appears

Ω

Indicates Continuity test

CONT

2nd display shows the title

3. Connect the
test lead and
measure

Connect the test lead between the Ω
and the COM port. The display

updates the reading.
