Resistance and Continuity Measurements

1..Insert.the.black.test.lead.into.the.negative.COM.terminal.and.the.red.

test.lead.into.the.positive.terminal.

2..Set.the.function.switch.to.the.

CAP

.position.

3..Use.the.multifunction.button.to.select.resistance.
4..Touch.the.test.probe.tips.across.the.circuit.or.component.under.test..It.

is.best.to.disconnect.one.side.of.the.device.under.test.so.the.rest.of.the.
circuit.will.not.interfere.with.the.resistance.reading.

5..For.Resistance.tests,.read.the.resistance.on.the.LCD.display.

6. For Continuity tests, if the resistance is < 50Ω, a tone will sound.

Capacitance Measurements

WARNING:

.To.avoid.electric.shock,.discharge.the.capacitor.under.test.

before.measuring.

1..Set.the.function.switch.to..

the.

CAP

.Position.

2..Press.the.multifunction.button.to.select.the.

capacitance.function.

3..Insert.the.black.test.lead.banana.plug.into.

the.negative.(COM).jack.and.the.red.test.
lead.banana.plug.into.the.positive.jack.

4..Touch.the.test.probe.tips.across.the.part.

under.test.

5..Read.the.capacitance.in.the.display.
6..The.display.will.indicate.the.proper.decimal.
