Diode Test
WARNINGS:
Never test diodes in a live circuit.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
2. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM
input jack and the red test lead into the positive
input jack.
3. Press the
button until the "
appears on the LCD display.
4. Touch the test probes to the diode under test.
5. Forward voltage will indicate 0.4V to 0.7V on
the LCD display. Reverse voltage
will indicate "OL". Shorted devices
will indicate near 0V and an open
device will indicate "OL" in both
polarities.
Continuity Test
WARNINGS:
Never test continuity on a live circuit.
1. Set the rotary function switch to the
2. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM input jack and the red test
lead into the positive
input jack.
3. Press the
button until the "•))) " symbol
appears on the LCD display.
4. Touch the test lead probes to the device or wire
being tested.
5. A tone will sound if the resistance is approximately
30 ohms or less.
