[5] HOW TO READ SCALE PLATE
Unlike other conventional testers, this tester is of auto range type
and does not show a value in the current range corresponding to
the position of the switch, but instead shows it on the range
display.
First look at the line indicated by the function switch (V,
Ω
, mV •
mA) and go down the column on which the range display LED is
lit. Then, read a value indicated by the pointer as follows.
