Note:
1. If the resistance value being measured exceeds the maximum
voltage of the range selected, an overrange indication will be
displayed ("OL"). Select a higher range. For resistance
approx. 1 M
Ω and above, the meter may take a few seconds
to stabilise. This is normal for high resistance readings.
2. When the input is not connected, i. e. at open circuit, the
figure "OL" will be displayed for the overrange condition.
3. When checking in-circuit resistance, be sure the circuit under
test has
all power removed and that all capacitors are
fully discharged.
6.7. Capacitance measurements
Caution!
Turn off power and discharge the capacitor before attempting a
capacitance measurement. Use the DCV function to confirm that
the capacitor is discharged.
1. Set the Function switch to
“CAP”-position.
2. Connect the red test lead to the V/
Ω -input jack and the black
test lead
to the COM-input jack.
3. Connect the test leads to the capacitor. Observe polarity when
measuring polarized capacitors.
3. Read the capacitance directly from the display. A shorted
capacitor will indicate an overrange. An open capacitor will
indicate near zero on all ranges.
