Resistance/Continuity Tests
In Ohm test, press button momentarily to set continuity function
ON. The sign will be lit and lock the range to 500 Ω. Then
connect the test leads and across the tested circuit as shown in Figure
2-8. While testing continuity, the beeper will sound if the resistance is
less than 10
Ω. For other ranges, the beeper will sound if the resistance
falls below the typical values indicated in Table 2-2.

Measuring range Beeper On
500.00 Ω <10 Ω
5.0000 kΩ <100 Ω
50.000 kΩ <1 kΩ
500.00 kΩ <10 kΩ
5.0000 MΩ <100 kΩ
50.000 MΩ <1 MΩ

WARNING!
To avoid damaging to the meter, do not apply a voltage
exceeding 500 V peak between the input terminals.
