1. Set the rotary selector to the desired OHM range.
2. Plug the black test lead into your meter’s COM terminal and the
red test lead into your meter’s V//Hz/ - terminal.
3. Connect the test leads to the device you want to measure.
Notes:
* If the measured resistance value exceeds the maximum
value of the range selected, "OL" appears flashes. This
indicates an overload. Select a higher range. In this mode,
the beeper does not sound.
* When you short the test leads in the 400 range, your meter
displays a small value (no more than 0.3). This value is due to
your meters and test leads internal resistance. Make a note
of this value and subtract it from small resistance
measurements for better accuracy.
6.4. Checking diodes
This function lets you check diodes and other semiconductors for
opens and shorts. It also lets you determine the forward voltage for
diodes. You can use this function when you need to match diodes.
1. Set the rotary selector to the position.
2. Plug the black test lead into your meter’s COM terminal and the
red test lead into your meter’s V//Hz/ - terminal.
3. Connect the test leads to the diode you want to check and note
the meter reading
Notes:
* If the display shows a value for example 0.2 for a
germanium diode or 0.5 for a silicon diode, reverse the diode. If
the meter indicates and overrange, the diode is good. The
displayed number is the diode’s actual forward voltage (up to
2.0 volts).
