Continuity Test / Diode Test - Format 55790010 Mode D'emploi

5.3 Continuity Test
Prior to any continuity test, it must be ensured that the resistance to be
measured is not live. Failure to comply with this prescription can lead to
dangerous corporal user injuries or cause instrument damage. Addition-
ally, foreign voltages falsify the measurement result.
• Position measurement function selection switch to measurement range.
• Connect the black test lead to the COM socket and the red test lead to the
VΩmA socket.
• Connect test leads to UUT.
• Read the measurement result displayed on the screen.
Acoustic indication by signal sound if resistance < 1000 Ω
5.4 Diode Test
Prior to any diode test, it must be ensured, that the diode to be tested is
not live. Failure to comply with this prescription can lead to dangerous
corporal user injuries or cause instrument damage. Additionally, foreign
voltages falsify the measurement result.
Resistors and semiconductor paths in parallel to the diode cause falsified
measurement results.
• Position measurement function selection switch to measurement range.
• Connect the black test lead to the COM socket and the red test lead to the
VΩmA socket.
• Connect test leads to UUT.
• Read the measurement result displayed on the screen.
Acoustic indication by signal sound if resistance < 1000 mV
