Diode
Test
Warning:
Do
not
do
diode,
resistance
or
continuity
tests
before
you
have
removed
the
power
from
capacitors
and
other
devices
under
test
during
a
measurement.
Injury
to
persons
can
occur.
1.
Set
the
function
switch
to
the
position.
2.
Insert
the
black
probe
lead
into
the
COM
terminal
and
red
probe
lead
into
the
V
terminal.
3.
Use
the
MODE
button
to
select
the
diode
test
function.
The
indicator
will
be
displayed.
4.
Insert
the
black
probe
lead
into
the
COM
(negative)
terminal
and
the
red
probe
lead
into
the
positive
terminal.
5.
Touch
the
tips
of
the
probe
across
the
diode
or
semiconductor
junction
under
test.
Make
a
note
of
the
value
on
the
display.
6.
Reverse
the
polarity
of
the
probes,
by
interchanging
the
probe
test
locations.
7.
Touch
the
tips
of
the
probe
across
the
diode
or
semiconductor
junction
under
test.
Make
a
note
of
the
new
value
on
the
display
5.11
Capacitance
Measurements
Warning:
Do
not
do
capacitance
tests
before
removing
the
power
to
the
capacitor
or
other
devices
under
test
during
a
measurement.
Injury
to
persons
can
occur.
1.
Set
the
function
switch
to
the
position.
2.
Use
the
MODE
button
to
select
the
capacitance
measurement.
The
F
(Farad)
unit
will
be
displayed.
3.
Insert
the
black
probe
lead
into
the
COM
(negative)
terminal
and
the
red
probe
lead
into
the
positive
terminal.
4.
Touch
the
tips
of
the
probe
across
the
part
under
test.
5.
Read
the
capacitance
value
on
the
display.
Note:
For
very
large
capacitance
values,
it
may
take
several
seconds
for
the
measurement
to
settle
and
the
final
reading
to
stabilize.
