Diode and Continuity Measurements
1.
Insert the black test lead into the negative COM terminal and the red
test lead into the positive V diode terminal.
2.
Turn the rotary function switch to the Ω position. Press the
MODE
button until the Diode Test indicator appears on the display.
3.
Touch the test probes to the diode under test. Forward voltage will
indicate 0.4V to 0.7V. Reverse voltage will be indicated by "OL".
Shorted devices will indicate near 0mV and an open device will be
indicated by "OL" in both polarities. For continuity tests, if the
resistance is <40Ω, a tone will sound.
Capacitance Measurements
1. To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and
discharge all capacitors before taking any capacitance measurements.
Remove the batteries and unplug the line cords.
2. Set the rotary function switch to the CAP position.
3. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM terminal and the red
test lead into the positive V terminal.
4. Touch the test leads to the capacitor under test.
5. The LCD will display the reading.
Frequency or % Duty Cycle Measurements
1. Set the rotary function switch to the V position.
2. Select ACV with the
MODE
button and press the
Hz/%
button to
indicate "Hz" in the display.
3. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM terminal and the red
test lead into the positive V terminal.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit under test.
5. The LCD will display the reading.
