11.6 Continuity test
Make sure that all the circuit parts, switches and components and other objects of measurement are
disconnected from the voltage and discharged�
1� Turn the DMM on and select measuring function
2� Press "MODE" button twice to switch measurement functions� The
symbol for continuity test now appears in the display� Pressing this
button again takes you to the first measuring function etc.
3� Plug the red measuring lead into the V measuring socket (9) and the
black measuring lead into the COM measuring socket (8)�
4� A continuity value of less than 50 Ohm is identified as continuity; in
this case a beep sounds� The impedance value is displayed up to
399�9 Ohm�
5� If "OL" (overload) appears on the display, you have exceeded the
measuring range or the measuring circuit has been broken�
6� After measuring, remove the measuring lines from the measured
object and turn the DMM off�
11.7 Capacity measurement
Make sure that all the circuit parts, switches and components and other objects of measurement are
disconnected from the voltage and discharged�
1� Turn the DMM on and select measuring function "CAP"�
2� Plug the red measuring lead into the V measuring socket (9) and the
black measuring lead into the COM measuring socket (8)�
3� Connect the measuring prods to the component�
4� If "OL" (overload) appears on the display, you have exceeded the
measuring range or the measuring circuit has been broken�
5� After measuring, remove the measuring leads from the measured
object and turn the DMM off�
Always observe correct polarity for electrolyte capacitators�
Make sure to use measuring leads that are as short as possi-
ble� Long measuring leads may cause measuring deviations�
