Continuity Test
1. Turn the rotary switch to the measurement function “
” and
select the continuity test function with the "Z/F." button. The
display will show “
”, “OL” and the “
W
” symbol.
2. Insert the red probe in the “INPUT” socket and insert the black
probe in the “COM” socket.
3. Connect the probes’ tips to the measuring object.
4. The buzzer will signal if continuity is present (resistance <30
W
)
and the orange backlight will turn on. In addition the resistance
will be shown on the screen. If the screen shows “OL”, the
measurement range has been exceeded or the measuring
circuit is defective.
WARNING:
•
Do not measure voltage above 10V; otherwise the
instrument might get damaged.
•
When testing for continuity on the line, disconnect the
power supply, ensure there is no source of voltage, and
discharge all capacitors. Otherwise, the instrument might
get damaged and might be in danger of an electric shock.
When measuring is finished, always remove the probes
from the measuring object and the device.
