To measure resistance:
4.11.1 Move rotary switch to the           position.
4.11.2 Connect the red test lead to the 

Ω

 jack and the 

            black lead to the COM jack.
4.11.3 Connect leads to circuit under test.
4.11.4 The measured resistance will be displayed.

          

  

4.12       Continuity

While in resistance mode, press 

“FUNC”

 to switch to 

continuity mode.
4.12.1 Connect the red test lead to the 

Ω

 jack and the 

            black lead to the COM jack
4.12.2.Connect leads to circuit under test.
4.12.3.If the measured resistance is less than 50

Ω

, the 

             meter’s buzzer will sound.

4.13        Diode Test

While in continuity mode, press 

“FUNC”

 to switch to 

diode mode.
4.13.1 Connect the red test lead to the V jack and the 
            black lead to the COM jack.
4.13.2.Connect leads across the diode under test.

Measuring Frequency:
4.15.1 Move the rotary switch to the Hz% position.
4.15.2 Connect the red test lead to the Hz% jack and the 
            black lead to the COM jack.
4.15.3 Connect the leads across the circuit under test.
4.15.4 The measured frequency will be displayed.
4.15.5 Press 

“FUNC”

 to switch to duty cycle.

4.15.6 Repeat steps 2-4 to measure duty cycle.

10.000A. 
4.16.1 Turn off power to the circuit and discharge all
            capacitors fully. 
4.16.2 Move the rotary switch to the appropriate current 
            position (µA, mA, or A)
4.16.3 Connect the black test lead to the COM jack.If the 
            current to be measured is less than 600mA, 
            connect the red test lead to the µAmA jack.If the 
            current to be measured is between 600mA and 
            10A, connect the red test lead to the 10A jack.
