Notes:
• If you do not know approximately what the current is, connect the circuit
to 20A input terminal first to see if you have a safe level for the mA
input terminal. Use the mA input terminal for Current up to 200mA.
• When measuring Current, the meter’s internal shunt resistors develop a
voltage across the meter’s terminals called "burden voltage". This
voltage drop is very low in your meter, but it may affect precision
circuits or measurements.
• If you set the meter for DC current,—appears or disappears to indicate
the polarity of the measured current.
6-3. Continuity Testing
Continuity testing verifies that circuit connections are intact. To perform
audible continuity tests, set the rotary switch to
and connect the meter
to your circuit.
Caution: Never perform a continuity measurement on a circuit that has
power connected.
Note: The buzzer sounds if the measured resistance is below 40 ohms.
