Check the test leads for any loosing or other reasons in case there is a resistance no less than 0.5

Ω when 

test leads are short-circuited. 

    

Several seconds may be required for the reading stability, which is normal in high resistance measurement 
like 60M

Ω. 

    

In circuit continuity measurement, the circuit is off when the resistance of both measured ends is 

 50

Ω 

without buzzer beeps. The circuit is on when the resistance of both measured ends is 

 10

Ω with buzzer beeps 

continuously. 

    

The resistance measurement function can be applied to make self-inspection of built-in fuse (See Figure 5b). 

    

Before online circuit continuity measurement, please switch off all powers in circuit and fully discharge all 
capacitors. 

    

Do not input voltage higher than DC 60V or AC 30V to avoid danger.

9.4 Diode Measurement (See Figure 5a)

1) Turn the function selection knob to the diode measurement scale. 
2) Insert the red test leads to the Ω port and the black one to the COM port, and connect the tips of two test 
    leads to both ends of measuring diode separately (with the load in parallel) to measure. 
3) OL symbol will be displayed if the diode is open circuit or polarity reversing. Generally, about 500~800mV is 
    confirmed to be normal for silicon PN junction. 

Note: 

    

Before online diode measuring operation, please switch off all powers in circuit and fully discharge all capacitors. 

    

The voltage range of diode measurement is about 3.0V. 

    

Do not input voltages above AC 30V or DC 60V to avoid injury. 

Note: 

     

OL symbol will be displayed when the measured resistance is open-circuit or the resistance exceeds the 

maximum range of meter. 

    

Before online resistance measuring operation, please switch off all powers in circuit and fully discharge all 
capacitors to avoid inaccuracy. 

    

Error of 0.1

Ω~0.2Ω will be resulted by test leads in low resistance measurement. In order to acquire an accurate 

reading, users should short circuit the test leads and choose REL relative measurement mode.
