4.9 Measuring resistance

• Rotate the probe socket clockwise to spin out the probe from the meter.
• Insert the black test lead or test clip in the COM jack.
• Set the transform switch at the Ω range position. Auto range or manual
range can be transformed by putting the "RANGE".
• Connect the probe tip of the meter to one side of the tested circuit and probe
tip of the test lead (or test clip) to the other side.
• You can get reading from LCD display.
When measuring in-circuit resistance, be sure the circuit under test has all
power removed and that all capacitors have been discharged fully.
NOTE:
• At the manual range mode, when only the figure 'OL' is displayed, it indi-
cates overrange situation and the higher range has to be selected.
• For measuring resistance above 1MΩ, the meter may take a few seconds
to get stable reading.
• When the input is not connected, i.e. at open circuit, the figure 'OL' will be
displayed for the overrange condition.

4.10 Testing diode

• Rotate the probe socket clockwise to spin out the probe from the meter.
• Insert the black test lead or test clip in the COM jack.
• Set the transform switch at the
• Put down the "FUNC." transformed at
• Connect the probe tip of the meter to the anode of the diode, the black test
lead (or test clip) to the cathode of the diode.
• You can get reading from LCD display.
NOTE:
• The meter will show the approximate forward voltage drop of the diode.
• If the meter and the lead connection is reversed, only figure 'OL' will be
displayed.
• When the input is not connected, i.e. at open circuit, the figure 'OL' will be
displayed.
