DIODE
TEST
1.
Set
the
function
switch
to
the
Ω
position.
2.
Insert
the
black
test
lead
banana
plug
into
the
negative
COM
jack
and
the
red
test
lead
banana
plug
into
the
positive
V
jack.
3.
Press
the
SELECT
button
to
indicate
and
V
on
the
display.
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.

MEASUREMENTS
WARNING:
To
avoid
electric
shock,
disconnect
power
to
the
unit
under
test
and
discharge
all
capacitors
before
taking
any
capacitance
measurements.
Remove
the
batteries
and
unplug
the
line
cords.
1.
Set
the
rotary
function
switch
to
the
Capacitance
symbol
position.
2.
Insert
the
black
test
lead
banana
plug
into
the
negative
COM
jack.
Insert
the
red
test
lead
banana
plug
into
the
positive
V
jack.
3.
Touch
the
test
leads
to
the
capacitor
to
be
tested.
4.
Read
the
capacitance
value
in
the
display
Capacitance
Measurement
Notes
The
meter
will
display
a
fixed
reading
with
no
input
connected,
this
is
the
internal
fixed
capacitance;
please
use
the
Relative
mode
to
null
the
effect
of
the
internal
fixed
capacitance
(especially
for
low
capacitance
measurements).
The
display
will
show
OL
when
the
capacitor
is
short
‐
circuited
or
if
the
capacitance
value
exceeds
the
maximum
range
of
the
meter.
High
capacity
capacitors
require
a
longer
time
period
to
stabilize
than
lower
capacity
devices.
To
prevent
damage
to
the
instrument
and
personal
injury,
release
all
residual
charges
to
devices
under
test
before
taking
measurements.
