Diode Test
WARNING:
Never test diodes in a live circuit.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
2. Momentarily press the MODE button until the
" " symbol appears on the display.
3. Insert the black test lead into the COM input jack
and the red test lead into the
4. Touch the test lead probes to the diode under test.
5. Forward voltage will indicate 0.4 to 0.7 on the
display. Reverse voltage will
indicate "OL". Shorted devices will
indicate near 0 and an open device
will indicate "OL" in both polarities.
Capacitance Measurements
WARNING:
Safely discharge capacitors before
taking capacitance measurements.
1. Set the rotary function switch to
the
position
2. Insert the black test lead into the
COM input jack and the red test
lead into the
input jack.
3. Touch the test lead probes to
the capacitor under test.
4. Read the capacitance value on the
LCD display. It may take up to a
minute to get a stable reading on
large capacitors.

WARNINGS:
1. Set the rotary function switch to
the °F °C position.
2. Press the MODE button to select
readings in °F or °C.
3. Connect the Temperature Probe
to the Banana Plug Adapter.
Note the – and + markings on
Red
the adapter. Connect the adapter
Probe
to the meter, making sure the –
side goes into the COM input
jack and the + side goes into
the °C°F input jack.
4. Touch the tip of the Temperature
Probe to the object being measured.
Keep the probe touching the object
until the reading stabilizes (about
30 sec).
5. Read the temperature on the LCD display.
Do not touch the temperature probe to live circuits.
