CONTACT TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS (THERMOCOUPLE PROBE)
1. Rotate the function switch to the
°F or °C
position.
2. Insert the temperature probe adaptor into the negative
COM
jack and the positive
TEMP
jack (the adaptor is labeled plus
+
and minus
-
)
3. Touch the temperature probe tip to a surface or leave
suspended in air.
4. Read the temperature in the display.
CONTINUITY CHECK
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, never measure continuity on circuits or wires that
have a voltage potential.
1. Rotate the function switch to the
position.
2. Press the
MODE
button to indicate on the display.
3. Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative
COM
jack.
Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive jack.
4. Touch the test probe tips to the circuit or wire you wish to check.
5. If the resistance is less than the continuity threshold, the audible signal will
sound.
DIODE TEST
1. Rotate the function switch to the green
position.
2. Press the
MODE
button to indicate “ “ and “
V
”
on the display.
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 probes to the diode under test. Forward voltage will
typically indicate 0.400 to 0.700V. Reverse voltage will indicate “
OL
”.
Shorted devices will indicate near 0V and an open device will indicate
“
OL
” in both polarities.
