Operation cont.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
position.
2. Press the
MODE
button until the “ “ symbol appears
on the LCD display.
3. Insert the black test lead into the
COM
input jack and
the red test lead into the
Ω
input jack.
4. Touch the test lead probes to the diode under test.
5. Forward voltage will indicate 0.4 to
0.7 on the LCD display. Reverse
voltage will indicate “OL”. Shorted
devices will indicate near 0 and
an open device will indicate “OL”
in both polarities.
Diode Test
Never test diodes in a live circuit.

4. Touch the test lead probes to the component
under test. If the component is installed in a
circuit, it is best to disconnect one side before
testing to eliminate interference with other devices.
5. Read the resistance in on the LCD display.
