Selecting Functions
Select measurement as shown in the diagram on the back of the meter.
V dc and V ac Functions
Rotate the rotary selector to the V position. V dc is the default function. The
dc annunciator
F
appears on the display. Press the SELECT button
momentarily to select V ac. The ac annunciator
B
appears on the display.

position. Resistance is the
default function.
1. Turn off power to the circuit being measured. Never measure resistance
across a voltage source or on a powered circuit.
2. Discharge any capacitors that may influence the reading.
3. Connect the test probes across the resistance.
4. Read the display. If OL appears on the highest range, the resistance is
too large to be measured or the circuit is an open circuit.
