RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to
the unit under test and discharge all capacitors before
taking any resistance measurements. Remove the
batteries and unplug the line cords.
1. Set the function switch to the
cap position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the negative
(COM) jack and the red test lead banana plug into the
positive
jack.
3. Touch the test probe tips across the circuit or part under
test. It is best to disconnect one side of the part under
test so the rest of the circuit will not interfere with the
resistance reading.
4. Read the resistance in the display. The display will
indicate the proper decimal point, value and symbol.
CONTINUITY CHECK
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, never measure
continuity on circuits or wires that have voltage on them.
1. Set the function switch to the
cap position.
2. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative (-)
jack (COM) and the red test lead banana plug into the
positive (+) jack (
).
3. Press the MODE button until the symbol appears in
the display.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit or wire you wish to
check.
5.
audible signal will sound. The display will also show the
actual resistance.
