7.  Diode Test (Picture 10)

1) Insert the red test lead into the            or            terminal, and black test lead 
    into the 

COM

 terminal.

2) Turn the function dial to the          or         position. 
3) Short press the 

button to switch to diode test if required.

SELECT 

4) Connect the red probe with the diode anode, and black probe with the diode 
    cathode.
5) Read the forward bias value on the display.
6) Measured value <0.12V: The diode may be damaged; the red indicator light 
    is on.
    Measured value within 0.12V~2V: The diode is normal; the green indicator 
    light is on (for reference only).
7) If the diode is open or its polarity is reversed, the LCD will display “OL”. For 
     silicon PN junction, the normal value is generally about 500~800 mV. 

Caution:

    Use caution when working with voltages above AC 30Vrms, 42Vpeak or DC 60V. 
    Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
    Before testing the diode, switch off the power supply of the circuit, and fully 
    discharge all capacitors.

8.  Capacitance Measurement (Picture 11)

1) Insert the red test lead into the           or           terminal, and black test lead 
    into the 

COM

 terminal.

2) Turn the function dial to the           or        position.
3) Short press the

button to switch to capacitance measurement.

 

SELECT 

4) Touch the probes to the capacitor pins.
5) Read the capacitance value on the display after it gets steady.

Caution:

    Use caution when working with voltages above AC 30Vrms, 42Vpeak or DC 
    60V. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
    Before measuring, fully discharge all capacitors (especially high-voltage 
    capacitors) to avoid damage to the meter and user.
    If the measured capacitor is short-circuited or the capacitance exceeds the 
    maximum range, the LCD will display “OL”.
    When measuring high capacitance, it is normal to take a few seconds to 
    stabilize the reading.
    For small capacitance measurement, the REL mode should be used to avoid 
    the influence coming from distributed capacitance so as to obtain the correct 
    reading.
